To reach the EU’s 2050 net-zero target, a wide range of solutions is needed. Key strategies include technologies like carbon capture and storage (CCS) and hydrogen direct reduction (H-DR), which can reduce emissions from industries such as steel, cement, and chemicals. However, no full-scale plants using these near-zero-emission methods exist yet.
In this webinar, Anna Hörbe Emanuelsson, PhD Candidate at Chalmers University of Technology, examines how large-scale, high-cost technologies can be implemented, focusing on CCS in various industries and H-DR for steel production. She introduces the Value Chain Transition Fund (VCTF), a new financing model to speed up the shift to zero-emissions, and will also look at the policies and infrastructure needed beyond factory operations to support these technologies.
