The Removal Compliance System: North Star for CDR demand in Europe? - with Francesca Battersby

The EU carbon removal purchasing programme and potential integration of removals into the ETS have generated plenty of buzz. Yet these could just be a first step in a longer policy sequence.

Could a CDR Compliance System be the north star to aim for in the longer term?

Carbon Gap has just unveiled its new report looking at how to drive long-term demand for permanent carbon removals across Europe.

In it, they examine different options for a Removal Compliance System (RCS), looking at both traditional emissions-based obligations and economy-wide mandates. 

Could the RCS spark fresh opportunities and big debates? How can Europe develop and design a new mode of compliance?

We’re thrilled to welcome special guest Francesca Battersby, Senior Policy Analyst at Carbon Gap and the lead author of the report, to explore this exciting topic together. She brings all the exclusive insights to help dissect the concepts on the table.

Join co-hosts Eve Tamme and Sebastian Manhart as they explore with Francesca what makes the RCS a potential game-changer and what issues to watch out for.
