Advancing Bioenergy with Carbon Capture and Storage (BECCS): Research and Industrial Perspectives

Описание: BECCS is a promising pathway to achieve net negative CO₂ emissions, combining renewable energy generation with permanent carbon removal. In this session, we introduced the BECCS concept and real-world applications.

Marco Melandri and Donata Folesani Chiari from Alma Mater Studiorum – Università di Bologna presented two BECCS models - one to maximise energy production, and another to maximise CO₂ removal - highlighting different perspectives and potential synergies. The webinar also introduced Gruppo AB - Energy Sustainability and their solutions for biofuels and CO₂ recovery.

About Lunch&Learn

The COREu Lunch&Learn webinar series offers short, focused sessions presenting key insights from the project and its experts on carbon capture and storage (CCS). Aimed at researchers, industry, the wider public, and other stakeholders, the webinars provide science-based, accessible input on topics such as CCS deployment routes, social acceptance, business models, and policy frameworks.

Designed for busy schedules, each session delivers concise knowledge without the need for active participation, just clear, expert-driven content to support informed decision-making and build momentum for safe, sustainable, and socially accepted CCS across Europe.

About COREu

COREu is one of the largest research and innovation project in the field of carbon capture and storage (CCS) funded by a European programme. Its goal is to accelerate the transition to a low-carbon future, targeting a reduction of 6.8 Mt/year of CO2 by 2035 and 36 Mt/year by 2050. This will be achieved by demonstrating key technologies across the entire CCS value chain in Europe. The project aims to develop new demonstration projects that connect CO2 sources with potential storage sites.

The project has received funding from the European Union's HE research and innovation programme under grant agreement No 101136217.
