Solar-powered CO2 electrolysis: Turning waste into value, advancing CCU.

Nature knows no waste! This is the case with waste CO2. Massive consumption of fossil fuels results in excessive emission of CO2. Building on a previous European Research Council proof-of-concept project that confirmed the competitiveness of a solar energy conversion approach, SolarCO2Value will aim for a real breakthrough in the field of carbon capture and utilisation (CCU) in line with Europe’s Green Deal objectives. Specifically, it will develop, build and operate a containerised demonstrator scale CO2 electrolyser unit (capable of processing 100 t CO2/year) as well as to validate its performance using photovoltaic power.
