Ambition around CCUS (Carbon Capture, Utilization and Storage) is growing rapidly. But what will it really take to make projects bankable and scalable across Europe?

The Carbon Capture Europe Summit 2026 in Rotterdam highlighted a key challenge for the sector: turning innovation and climate ambition into robust, financially viable projects.

The discussion brought together key stakeholders from across the value chain - industrial players, transport and storage operators, investors, and policymakers - with a shared focus on project structuring and bankability.

The conversation continues, with the goal of strengthening projects that can compete at a European level and deliver tangible impact.

At PNO Innovation Europe, we support companies in navigating this journey.
