State of CCUS Â | Â Innovation
CCUS is a core technology in the Danish green transition and onwards to climate neutrality. Denmark boasts a wealth of
expertise across the entire CCUS value chain.
From efficient power plants to innovative technology providers – we have it
all.
Our underground reservoirs, which have held oil and gas for millennia, are being repurposed for Carbon Capture and
Storage (CCS). Denmark’s abundance of renewable energy positions us perfectly to produce green hydrogen and utilise
CO 2 (CCU), for example, to create eco-friendly fuels and plastics, tackling other pressing environmental issues.
Investments in green research and innovation are an important priority for the government. CCUS is one of four green missions
identified in “Green solutions of the future – Strategy for investments in green research, technology, and innovation”
from 2020.
The missions address challenges where there is a need for accelerating the development of green technologies
and solutions to reach the climate goals and help protect our environment and nature. From 2021 to 2024, a broad majority
in the Danish parliament has prioritised 1.6 billion DDK.
