CDR policy expert Aidan Preston unpacks how the EU, UK, and California are reshaping demand, financeability, and governance for durable removals in his policy wrap-up.

Milkywire’s Robert Höglund shows how durable carbon removal can be a cost-effective tool for shipping decarbonisation, why it’s overlooked in policies and roadmaps, and how pairing CDR with fuels can speed up progress to net zero.

Milkywire's Robert Höglund discusses a new study regarding carbon storage limits, and argues that we need to invest and scale storage infrastructure now to build capacity to address legacy emissions later.

Milkywire’s Robert Höglund reflects on how allowing companies to reach near-term SBTi Net zero targets with permanent CDR will increase ambition.

Among the selected organizations are Kairos Carbon, capturing carbon from wet organic wastes, Backwater, working on a new, widely-deployable, geological storage method for CO₂, and Norma, developing next-gen Direct Air Capture. 

The newly announced EU purchasing program for Permanent Carbon Removal Credits should be led by one goal: help create a removals sector that enables the union to produce enough removals to meet its net zero targets. In this article, Milkywire’s Aidan Preston, who recently worked on the US Department of Energy CDR Purchase Pilot, and Robert Höglund, EU CDR Expert Group member, give their perspective on what the EU programme should look like to help fulfil this goal.

After receiving more than 400 CDR project applications for our 2025 Climate Transformation Fund, we’ve shortlisted candidates for advisory group evaluation.
