The CDR Policy Scoop The Uncertain Future of the EU’s CDR Buyers’ Club - with Robert Höglund
The European Commission has started fleshing out an EU Buyers’ Club to jump‑start demand for high‑quality CRCF credits in the voluntary market. The first closed‑door workshop took place in Brussels on 4th of December, with a series of follow‑up meetings planned over the next six months.
In this episode, we speak with Robert Höglund, co‑founder of CDR.fyi and manager of the Milkywire Climate Transformation Fund, who took part in the Brussels workshop. He shares what was discussed in the room, what the emerging model for the Buyers’ Club looks like, and where the biggest political, technical and market hurdles lie.
Join co‑hosts Eve Tamme and Sebastian Manhart for an inside look at the state of play, what needs to happen next, and why turning the Buyers’ Club from concept into a functioning EU demand engine within the next five years will be anything but straightforward.
