We are excited to announce that the EEIP Project Office has joined the CAPTUS project, an innovative initiative aimed at demonstrating sustainable and cost-effective pathways to produce high-added value renewable energy carriers (RECs) in energy-intensive industries (EIIs). This collaboration aligns with our commitment to advancing sustainable energy solutions and reducing carbon emissions.
About CAPTUS
The CAPTUS project focuses on the valorization of carbon emissions from EIIs by integrating renewable energy sources to produce RECs. By leveraging peaks in renewable energy supply, CAPTUS aims to capture carbon and convert it into various liquid energy carriers, which can serve as feedstocks for renewable fuels and chemicals.
Project Objectives and Key Figures
Key objectives of the CAPTUS project include:
- Demonstration of Innovative Solutions: Implementing CO₂ capture and conversion technologies in three real demonstration sites across Europe.
- Integration of Renewable Energy: Utilizing surplus renewable energy to power carbon capture processes, enhancing the sustainability of EIIs.
- Production of High-Value RECs: Generating liquid energy carriers that can be used as renewable fuels or chemical feedstocks, contributing to a circular carbon economy.
The project consortium comprises 18 partners from 8 countries, coordinated by the CIRCE Technology Centre.
EEIP’s Role and Commitment
As a partner in the CAPTUS project, EEIP is enthusiastic about contributing to the development and dissemination of innovative solutions for carbon capture and utilization. We are committed to collaborating with our partners to achieve the project’s objectives and to share the outcomes with stakeholders across Europe.For more information about the CAPTUS project, please visit the official website.
