From the Aegean Sea to the plains of South Moravia, the COREu team is laying the groundwork for safe and effective CO₂ storage. With environmental monitoring campaigns underway in Greece, Czech Republic, Poland, and Ukraine, researchers are mapping the natural geochemical conditions above and around future storage sites. These baseline studies are essential for ensuring long-term safety and transparency in carbon storage projects across Europe.

On March 18th and 19th, 2025, the COREu annual meeting took place in Brussels, bringing together nearly 100 participants from 43 partner organizations across 13 countries. This gathering marked a significant milestone in the project's journey, showcasing the collective achievements and future plans of the consortium.

In January, project partner Glass Futures participated in the CO₂ Capture Connect conference in Pau, France, organized and sponsored by Pôle AVENIA and Genesis.

We are excited to announce that COREu will be presented by our esteemed project partner, Saipem, at the upcoming OMC MED ENERGY CONFERENCE & EXHIBITION in Ravenna, Italy.

In honor of International Women's Day, we celebrate the remarkable contributions of Annick Lachance Nyiringango, an engineer whose passion for innovation and sustainability is driving significant advancements in the COREu project.
