Zero Emission Network to facilitate CCUS uptake in industrial clusters

CCUS ZEN的总体目标是加速在整个欧洲部署CCUS，这将通过以下方式实现：•为CCUS价值链的发展制定具体和可操作的计划。由于北海（NS）地区的CCUS发展相对成熟，CCUS ZEN将利用这些发展作为目前欠发达的波罗的海（BS）和地中海（MS）地区开发新的CCUS价值链的最佳实践。虽然CCUS价值链，即从二氧化碳捕获到运输到最终储存或利用的整个途径，今天可以实现，但该行业仍处于起步阶段，必须解决许多问题才能实现所需的快速部署。该联盟由15个合作伙伴组成，其中包括两个协会，共有400多名成员，汇集了在CCUS价值链各个方面具有领先专业知识的实体。代表行业、rto、协会、集群、港口和市政当局参与CCUS价值链开发和部署的30个组织将作为网络合作伙伴贡献他们的专业知识。从分析BS和MS地区的技术和非技术状态开始，CCUS ZEN将选择至少八个价值链（每个地区四个）进行详细研究，并与NS地区的成功价值链进行比较。然后，将从每个分析区域中选出一条最有希望的价值链，并制定进一步发展的详细计划。通过其知识共享活动和NS区域最佳实践的转让，CCUS ZEN将为未来的CCUS价值链提供信息基础，包括政策建议和CCUS价值链发展蓝图，包括易于获取的技术和二氧化碳源映射，通用技术框架和商业计划模型。

The overarching goal of CCUS ZEN is the accelerated deployment of CCUS throughout Europe, which will be achieved by: • Sharing knowledge and disseminating information important for stakeholders to make informed decisions on CCUS • Developing specific and actionable plans for the development of CCUS value chains As CCUS developments around the North Sea (NS) region are relatively mature, CCUS ZEN will leverage these developments as best practice for the development of new CCUS value chains in the currently underdeveloped Baltic Sea (BS) and the Mediterranean Sea (MS) Regions. While CCUS value chains, i.e., the entire pathway from CO2 capture to transport to its eventual storage or utilization, can today be realized, the industry is still in its infancy and many issues must be addressed to achieve the rapid deployment required. The consortium, consisting of 15 partners, including 2 associations with over 400 members in total, brings together entities with leading expertise on all aspects of CCUS value chains. 30 organisations, representing industry, RTOs, Associations, clusters, ports and municipalities involved in the development and deployment of CCUS value chains, will contribute their expertise as networking partners. Starting from an analysis of the technical and non-technical state-of-play in the BS and MS regions, CCUS ZEN will select at least eight value chains (four in each region) for detailed study and comparison with successful value chains from the NS region. One value chain from each analysed region will then be selected as most promising, with a detailed plan for further development. Through its knowledge-sharing activities and transfer of best practices from the NS region, CCUS ZEN will provide an information basis for the future CCUS value chains, including policy recommendations and a blueprint for CCUS value chain development, including easily accessible technology and CO2 source mapping, generic technical frameworks and business plan models.
