  • 🇬🇧 Can the UK keep calm and remove carbon?

    by 2030 and ramping up to 58 per year by 2050. 2️⃣ The UK plans to integrate durable CDR into their ETS

  • 🔓 How much CDR could the EU ETS integration unlock?

    . 💱 Darius Sultani et al. (2026) “How the EU can utilize its carbon market to scale up carbon dioxide It assumes CDR and ETS Emission Allowances (EUAs) to be fungible, so marginal abatement cost equals marginal removal cost. 📈 There is also no ETS2 merger, no UK ETS linkage or Article 6 flows - all of which would increase the volume. 🤔 Under full integration, the EU ETS could incentivise 68-86 Mt CO₂/yr of combined integration (MRV/CRCF -> partial integration -> full integration) to a concrete proposal to transition the ETS

  • 🚨 [NEW PAPER] Ready for compliance: the case for Biochar Carbon Removal

    durable CDR option available today and should be among the first options integrated into the EU and UK ETS As a reminder: the European Commission is currently drafting a legislative proposal on CDR in the EU ETS ETS integration seems almost a given, but one of the key questions is which technologies will qualify 🫰 BCR is the only cost-compatible durable CDR for the ETS at €150-€200/t 🏆 90% of all durable CDR globally robust, digital MRV has already tracked >100Kt 👉 Bottom line: CRCF-certified BCR is a no-brainer for ETS

  • EASY AS 1️⃣-2️⃣-3️⃣! The steps required to integrate CDR into ETS.

    advocate for integrating Carbon Dioxide Removal (hashtag#CDR) into Emissions Trading Systems (hashtag#ETS Could this weaken the EU ETS, which has been instrumental in reducing carbon emissions? They argue that only CDR methods that are considered "permanent" should qualify for integration into ETS Defining rules for the integration of CDR certificates into the market so that they can be traded with ETS

  • 🚨 NEW PAPER: How Frontloaded ETS Revenues Can Close Europe’s CDR GAP

    🤔 Can we leverage future ETS revenues for present day investments into CDR? Responsible Carbon Removal . 💶 The idea is not new: use European Investment Bank bonds backed by an ETS1 and ETS2 guarantee base to mobilise up to 200 billions of euros in green investment in the 2028-2034 installed capacity, and climate targets for the EU. 📆 In just under two weeks we will see the long-awaited ETS Now is the time to think beyond integration, and look at how the ETS can be leveraged for CDR more broadly

  • 🤔 🇪🇺 Do you *really* know how European policy works? 🇪🇺 🤔

    🙈 Admit it. Do you understand the difference between EU Parliament, Commission, and Council? And why do they keep “trialoguing”? 😅 Well, you’re not alone. If you want to understand this bureaucratic labyrinth that’s leading in the way in carbon removal policy, then you’ll love what I have in store for you. 👀 Stay tuned for more soon.

  • 👀 The world’s biggest carbon market just got BIGGER

    🤯 The Chinese emission trading system is a whopping 6x the size of Europe’s ETS and now covers 60% of It’s fascinating: ◾The ETS was launched in 2021, designed to support the national goal of peak emissions in 2030 (65% reduction vs 2005) and net-zero in 2060 ◾The ETS started with power (2021 - 5Gt - 40% of It’s quite different from the EU ETS. 🔎 For now, it is largely a monitoring tool. Yes, the Chinese ETS is still small in financial terms, reaching only CNY 18 billion in 2024 (€2b).

  • 🇨🇭 Want to make sense of Switzerland’s pioneering approach to CDR? 🇨🇭

    ⭐ Few countries have understood CDR as well as Switzerland. And some of its brightest civil servants have spent years designing cutting-edge CDR policy. 😍 Alongside my colleagues at @carbonfuture, we went deep into the topic and distilled everything you need to know into a beautiful, shareable policy brief.  🏆 Switzerland has created what most countries still lack: a clear, funded, and internationally connected framework for carbon removal. 👀 Check out the carousel for some of the of the hightlights. 📑 Go and download your free Switzerland policy brief now:  https://lnkd.in/dg_8VvW6 ). 👇 Let us know what you think in the comments. We will be producing more of these (next is almost done…) and want to make sure they are genuinely useful to the ecosystem.

    and fertilizers, eventually covering over 50% of sectors covered by the EU Emissions Trading Scheme (#ETS It also won’t apply to imports from countries which are covered by the EU ETS and countries with a domestic ETS fully linked with the EU ETS (i.e. be incentivised to invest more in carbon capture and storage (#CCS) and CDR technologies to mitigate ETS

  • 🇪🇺 Should biochar carbon removal (hashtag#BCR) be integrated into the EU Emission Trading System (hashtag#EUETS)? 🇪🇺

    And its impact goes way beyond BCR and the EU ETS. 🤔 Here is why: some groups are advocating forcefully that we should only allow CCS based CDR to be integrated into the ETS - so DACCS and BECCS. CRCF permanent removals’ units should be seen as good enough to be used in other regulations, from EU ETS , to the EU Green Claims Directive, etc. ✅ And, well, biochar carbon removal - after years of deliberations with hundreds of experts - passed this bar. 💚 So, yes, BCR should be integrated into the EU ETS. 📆

  • 📊 [Poll] What carbon removal should be integrated into the EU Emission Trading System (hashtag#ETS) first (starting 2031)? 📊
