The CO2-based Fuels and Chemicals Conference has successfully established itself as an international and unique meeting and networking ground for the entire Carbon Capture and Utilisation (CCU) and Power-to-X industry and its customers. The upcoming 14th edition of the conference will take place on 28–29 April 2026, Cologne, Germany as a hybrid event. Organiser nova-Institute expects 230 leading international experts in the field of CCU, renewable hydrogen production and Power-to-X. Once more the event will showcase the latest innovations and most important developments in the fast-growing field of Carbon Capture and Utilisation with plenty of opportunities to network. |
Carbon Capture & Utilisation (CCU) enables the substitution of fossil carbon in sectors where carbon is needed, supports the complete defossilisation of the chemical and feedstock industries, creates a circular economy, reduces the emissions gap, promotes sustainable carbon cycles, fosters innovation, creates local value and stimulates job growth. CCU is not just a carbon removal technology, the use of CO2 offers multiple solutions to pressing problems of our modern world and can support multiple Sustainable Development Goals if properly implemented. CCU needs more political recognition and support as its relevance as a central pillar for the transformation of the chemical and materials industry is not yet accepted, especially in Europe.
How can we implement a CCU value chain? What is the current and future role of CCU in relation to sustainability and certification? Learn about the current state and future development of CCU from leading experts in the field:
