The Danish CCUS Summit 2026

Carbon capture, storage, and utilisation (CCUS) technologies are set to play a key role in Denmark’s climate strategy. But where do we stand today – and what challenges and opportunities will define the years ahead?

On 8 September 2026, we bring together researchers, industry leaders, policymakers and other key stakeholders for a full day of insights, discussions and networking focused on CCUS in Denmark and beyond.

• Get up to date on the latest developments in CCUS
• Explore the technologies and projects shaping the future of the field
• Connect with key actors across the Danish CCUS ecosystem
