ACCSESS Open Online Event

ACCSESS Open Online Event – Management of captured CO₂: Solutions for continental Europe

The EU-funded project ACCSESS is delighted to invite you to an open online event exploring management of captured CO2, using Central Europe as a case study. It will explore the opportunities of CO2 utilisation and the recent development of European CO2 infrastructure and how CO2 specifications can influence the costs. CO2 providers will share their views on the challenges and strategies involved in managing and transporting captured CO2 to its final destination.

ACCSESS will also provide insights into ongoing carbon capture pilot testing at the Górażdże cement plant in Poland.

When: 14 October 2025, 09:00 – 12:00 CET
Where: Online

Please note that this event will be recorded until the Q&A session, to be uploaded to YouTube.
