On 9 May 2026, COREu took part in the Energy and Climate Festival in Karlsruhe, represented by Steinbeis Europa Zentrum. Held at the city’s market square, the festival brought together a wide range of organisations and initiatives, each presenting their work through interactive booths and activities designed to engage the public on climate and energy topics.

We are pleased to share that COREu will be participating in WCCUS 2026 in Edinburgh, UK. Our project partner Steinbeis Europa Zentrum, in collaboration with CCUS Innovation will convene a one-day workshop ‘’Enabling CCS Deployment in Europe: Key Policy Levers and Requirement’’.

COREu will once again participate in the Energy & Climate Festival in Karlsruhe. Taking place on Europe Day, the festival is a great opportunity to celebrate European collaboration and exchange on climate and energy topics.

We would like to announce a workshop aimed at interested stakeholders in the glass industry who would like to learn more about carbon capture and storage (CCS).

This half-day event brings together industry leaders, financiers, policymakers, and technology providers to explore how CCUS projects can move from innovation and demonstration to bankable investments and final investment decisions (FID).

COREu is excited be part of the online webinar "Impact of CO2 impurities on the CCUS chain deployment from different perspectives", together with three other EU-funded projects.

In this webinar, we will explore the innovative use of environmental DNA (eDNA) sampling within Carbon Capture and Storage (CCS) projects. In COREu, eDNA is being applied to collect baseline biodiversity data in a Mediterranean CCS setting, offering a novel approach to environmental monitoring. We will discuss the methodology for sampling and analyzing eDNA, focusing on its potential to track species occurrence, including rare and elusive species, over long periods. This session will also highlight the importance of establishing reference locations and biobanks for future use in monitoring the long-term impacts of CCS on biodiversity. Join us to learn how eDNA can play a crucial role in shaping effective and sustainable CCS strategies.

Bioenergy with Carbon Capture and Storage (BECCS) is one of the most promising pathways to achieve net negative CO₂ emissions, combining renewable energy generation with permanent carbon removal. By capturing and storing the CO₂ released during bioenergy production, BECCS can actively reduce greenhouse gas concentrations in the atmosphere.
