Providing access to cost-efficient, replicable, safe and flexible CCUS
CCUS across industrial sectors
ACCSESS takes a cross-sectorial approach to CO2 Capture, Transportation, Utilisation and Storage (CCUS), working with Pulp and Paper, Cement, Waste to Energy, and Biorefining, all industries with big potential for carbon dioxide removal.
Cost-efficiency
Demonstrate and integrate cost-efficient CO2 capture and use in industrial installations to enable permanent CDR.
Access
Provide access routes for CO2 captured from European industries to flexible transport and storage infrastructures in the North Sea.
Integration
Leverage CDR to drive societal integration of CCUS towards improved urban and European sustainability.

ACCSESS holds sixth technical meeting in Zürich
On 10-12 June, the ACCSESS consortium convened in Zürich, Switzerland for the project’s sixth technical meeting.
Demonstration plant for industrial waste recarbonation successfully commissioned
A pilot plant for demonstrating alkaline industrial waste recarbonation is being put into operation. This plant was built by Neustark in collaboration with ETH Zürich, and is part of ACCSESS’ second innovation.
ACCSESS holds fifth technical meeting in Gävle
On 15-16 November, the ACCSESS consortium convened in Gävle, Sweden for the project’s fifth technical meeting.
The path to a Climate Neutral Europe
The ACCSESS project’s vision is to develop replicable CCUS pathways towards a Climate Neutral Europe in 2050.
ACCSESS will improve CO2 capture integration in industrial installations (20-30% cost cuts) as a key element to accelerate CCUS implementation, address the full CCUS chain and the societal integration of CCUS.
What is CCS?
ACCSESS aims to increase the societal understanding of CCS technologies, and how they can contribute to the development of a low-carbon society.
As such, the project has created a series of videos explaining core CCS concepts in relation to the four industrial sectors being examined in ACCSESS: pulp and paper, cement, waste-to-energy, and biorefineries.

Moving CCUS in the right direction
To maximize the impact of the Centres main objectives and accelerate the necessary uptake and deployment of CCUS, ACCSESS takes a cross-sectorial approach. Throughout the project, five key items will be tracked for project coherence and efficient internal and external communication and dissemination.
