Carbon Capture Poland

Limiting the increase in global temperature to 1.5 degrees requires a drastic reduction in CO₂ concentration in the atmosphere. Carbon capture technology can reduce carbon emissions, create new business opportunities and make energy systems more resilient. However, the prospect of its implementation and analysis of possible solutions require global cooperation on the way to the green transformation. This especially applies to sectors where decreasing emissions is difficult – therefore large-scale actions are necessary.

CARBON CAPTURE CONGRESS is a meeting place for entities interested in implementing CCUS technology and business solutions for the decarbonization of the economy. This is an opportunity to learn about the latest commercial solutions, expand your contact network and meet industry leaders.

During the congress, you will be able to listen to presentations by experts from Poland and abroad who have experience in the proper functioning of carbon capture installations in enterprises. The first event of this type is held under the substantive patronage of the Energy Center of the AGH University of Science and Technology in Cracow – the creators of the first strategy for the development of technologies for capture, transport, utilization and storage of CO2 in Poland and the pilot Polish CCUS Cluster. The event will take place the day before the start of the Hydrogen Technologies and Decarbonization Forum – it will be an integral part of the event organized by the Poznań International Fair. Congress participants will thus have the opportunity to present themselves during the H2POLAND CENTRAL EUROPEAN FORUM FOR HYDROGEN TECHNOLOGIES, NETZERO* and accompanying events!

The first edition of Carbon Capture will take place at the Poznań International Fair on April 23, 2024.

The business meeting is addressed to:

representatives of the cement, steel, petrochemical and pulp sectors
representatives of the energy, heating and coal industries
CCUS technology providers
representatives of the State Treasury, the financial sector and government agencies
installation contractors
CSRD and ESG specialists
