The federal government is investing $28.9 million through the Energy Innovation Program in 12 projects advancing carbon capture, renewable energy and smart grid innovation across Canada. The funding, announced by Natural Resources Minister Tim Hodgson, directs the largest share — $16.9 million — toward carbon capture, utilization and storage research and demonstration, with the remainder supporting renewable energy deployment and electricity grid modernization.
Carmeuse and Holcim Romania have formalized their partnership in Carbon Hub CPT01, Eastern Europe's first large-scale onshore carbon capture and storage project, following Holcim Romania's grant agreement with the European Climate, Infrastructure and Environment Executive Agency. Funded by the EU Innovation Fund, the Câmpulung-based project will produce approximately 2 million tonnes of near-zero cement and 200,000 tonnes of near-zero lime annually, supporting both companies' net-zero goals and broader European decarbonization policy.
The EPA has approved a permit for One Carbon Partnership to inject and store up to 13.5 million metric tons of CO₂ underground over 30 years at an ethanol facility in Randolph County, Indiana, with monitoring requirements extending 50 years post-injection to protect drinking water sources.
Saipem and Capsol Technologies ASA have signed a cooperation agreement to jointly develop industrial-scale carbon capture projects using Hot Potassium Carbonate technology, building on their existing collaboration on a Stockholm Exergi bioenergy plant currently under construction.
PSB Industries is promoting a catalytic oxidation system designed to remove VOCs from CO₂ off-gas at RNG facilities, enabling operators to purify and recover CO₂ for resale while reducing emissions and lowering operating costs compared to traditional thermal oxidation methods.
