BACKGROUND - WHY RISK MATTERS IN CCS

Carbon Capture and Storage (CCS) projects face a range of complex risks across the value chain—legal, financial, operational, and regulatory. As CCS and Carbon Dioxide Removal (CDR) efforts scale, it is crucial to understand how these risks can be managed to ensure project viability.
 
WHAT YOU’LL GAIN
Join us in Copenhagen for an expert-led seminar focused on identifying and addressing key CCS risks. You’ll gain insight into legal frameworks for CDRs, carbon credit regulation, long-term liability, and insurance solutions for CCS assets and operations.
 
The presentations and panel will feature expert voices from policymakers, legal professionals, seasoned insurers, and industry operators.
 
FOCUS AREAS
We’ll explore cross-cutting risks in CCS development, legal questions around CDRs, and how insurance and legal tools can help derisk complex projects.
