💡 Great to see this new report shed some light on the links between CDR and CITIES 🏙️ There is massive potential to implement CDR at the city-level, especially when it comes to waste management and BECCS. In Amsterdam, up to 25% of the city's emissions could be removed with bio-CCS ONLY! As waste management facilities are often municipally-owned, this is a highly-replicable, low-hanging fruit for cities to generate negative emissions. CDR offers cities a way to actively mitigate emissions of CO2 causing global warming, achieve net-zero goals and eventually reduce the absolute concentration of CO2 in the atmosphere, while generating a myriad of co-benefits. The report distinguishes various roles that cities can take to advance CDR: strategizer, regulator, service provider, innovator, funder and convenor. It also presents which policy instruments are most needed by CDR project developers to advance their solutions. ➡️ Full report here: https://lnkd.in/g54j6Utr #CarbonRemoval #CDR #NegativeEmissions #BECCS #BioCCS #CityCDR #NetZero #NetZeroCities #ClimateAction

CO2-Entnahme (Carbon Dioxide Removal, #CDR): Ein wesentliches Puzzleteil zur Eindämmung des Klimawandels? 🌎 Obwohl mehr als 96 % der weltweiten Treibhausgasemissionen aus Ländern stammen, die sich zu Klimaschutzmaßnahmen verpflichtet haben, bleibt unser derzeitiger Kurs immer noch deutlich hinter den Anstrengungen zurück, die für das im Pariser Abkommen festgelegte 1,5 °C-Ziel erforderlich sind. Die jüngste Studie von Boston Consulting Group (BCG) und Deutscher Verband für negative Emissionen e.V. (DVNE) unterstreicht, dass eine Erhöhung des globalen CDR-Volumens auf mindestens 4,5-9 Gigatonnen jährlich bis 2050 unumgänglich ist, um die globale Erwärmung auf unter 2°C bzw. 1,5°C zu begrenzen. CDR ist von entscheidender Bedeutung für die Senkung und Stabilisierung der CO2-Konzentration in der Atmosphäre, die deutliche Abmilderung der Auswirkungen der globalen Erwärmung und die Erreichung ehrgeiziger Netto-Null-Ziele. CDR befasst sich mit den Restemissionen aus schwer abbaubaren Sektoren wie Stahl, Zement oder Chemikalien und kann auch “historische Emissionen” beseitigen. Das Verständnis und die Integration von CDR in unsere Klimastrategien sind für eine nachhaltige Zukunft unerlässlich.

Feeling energized after attending Deutscher Verband für negative Emissionen e.V. (DVNE)'s first summer event! It was inspiring to hear from numerous engaging speakers and connect with key players across the entire #CDR value chain. ➡️ CDR's growing importance in German politics: We witnessed insightful discussions on the critical role of #CarbonRemoval in shaping German policies. Check out the highlights in the post below. ➡️ “Carbon Dioxide Removal: Europe and Germany's Role in Catalyzing a Trillion-Euro Industry”: The introduction of this report by Boston Consulting Group (BCG) underscored the immense potential of CDR, along with significant uncertainties and an urgent need for action. ➡️ DVNE has significantly boosted the German CDR ecosystem over the past year, and we look forward to seeing continued progress in this vital area!

#CDR could become a game-changer in our fight against climate change! The recent Boston Consulting Group (BCG) study with Deutscher Verband für negative Emissionen e.V. (DVNE) “Carbon Dioxide Removal: Europe and Germany's Role in Catalyzing a Trillion-Euro Industry” explores the transformative impact #CarbonRemoval could have on achieving climate goals while fostering economic growth. 🌿 Key Role in Climate Goals: Beyond inevitable reduction measures, CDR is an essential part of our ambition to keep the goal of the Paris Agreement within reach by neutralizing residual emissions from hard-to-abate sectors, and eventually historical emissions. 📈 Economic Boom: CDR's economic potential could reach ���470-940B annually by 2050 – this is at par with today’s global airline industry. Europe's CDR industry could reach €220B per year by then, driven especially by technological advancements and economies of scale. 🤝 Job Potential: The European CDR industry could create up to 670K jobs. 🌍 Europe Paves the Way: With its tech expertise and climate policies, Europe is set to have a significant impact on this market. However, bold actions from policymakers, the CDR industry, CDR certificate buyers, and investors are necessary to unlock CDR’s full potential. ➡️ At Airfix, we are contributing to unlocking this market – by advising emitters, supporting project development and implementation and offering corporate buyers high-quality certified carbon removal credits. Airfix is a member of the board of DVNE.

💭 By how much could CO₂ transport costs fall over the next 5 years for inland emitters? From our analysis: quite a lot 📉 💡 At Airfix, we identify and evaluate levers that will influence the cost of #CO2Transport. By unlocking cheaper and more efficient transport modalities, and aggregating volumes from different emitters, cross-European CO₂ transport costs for a small emitter in Switzerland could fall by 40% by 2028! 💬 Want to find out more?

🇨🇭🇳🇴 Switzerland-Norway cooperation on #CCS and #CDR Two days of exchange between Swiss and Norwegian stakeholders in Zurich last month. Organised by both governments, the aim was to generate collaboration between stakeholders of both countries. It was great to meet in person many of the stakeholders we work with on a regular basis. 💭 A lot of interesting discussions to choose from, but here are a few: ➡️ Financial institution & CO2 infrastructure players recommended to remove the financial guarantee requirements for storage contracts, as it excludes small and medium size emitters, adds cost to the value chain and makes the emitter bear the full risk. ➡️ First movers have the daunting task of setting up the CO2 value chain and this will benefit the entire CCS industry – they should be incentivised rather than bear the full risk ➡️ Swiss emitters need to aggregate to be integrated in the EU plans for CO2 transport infrastructure, and to make their value chain more efficient ➡️ Most BECCS projects currently need both CDR sales and subsidies in order to be financially viable ➡️ The number of BECCS methodologies is growing with heterogeneous quality standards, making it even more complicated for CDR buyers to navigate → many look to the #CRCF to set the minimum quality standards (unclear how it will impact Swiss compliance market standards) 🙏🙏 A huge thanks to Sophie Wenger & Veronika Elgart for inviting us to contribute to this event, and to the City of Zürich for hosting. Airfix is leading the Carbon Rhine Route (CO2RR) CETPartnership project, involving ChemOil Logistics AG, Northern Lights JV and Carbon Impact France – we hope to further foster cooperations between Switzerland and Norway.
