Coffee Break
Enjoy a refreshment break while continuing discussions and making new connections.
Soil Carbon at Scale: The Missing Pathway in CDR
- Why does soil carbon continue to receive less attention than regenerative agriculture and other removal pathways such as biochar and ERW, despite its potential scale?
- How are buyers evaluating soil carbon relative to engineered and other nature-based approaches?
- What advances in MRV, monitoring and data confidence are changing perceptions of credibility and permanence?
- Can soil carbon move from fragmented projects to a recognised and scalable market category?
AI, Data Centres & the Next Climate Challenge
- As AI accelerates data centre growth, how are climate and procurement strategies evolving? With Anthropic joining Frontier, are AI companies becoming a major new buyer segment?
- What are the barriers for carbon removal to become a key tool for addressing residual emissions, and can data centre operators absorb the cost?
- How will competition for clean power, grid capacity, and infrastructure affect CDR deployment?
- Which pathways: DAC, biochar, ERW, stand to benefit most from the AI boom?
Take The Stage!
An open-mic forum for the carbon removal community. Whether you have a question, challenge, frustration, insight, or idea, this is your opportunity to take the stage and spark a candid conversation with peers across the room. No presentations, no panels - just an open, constructive space to surface the issues, concerns, and debates shaping the future of CDR.
Europe's Largest Buyer-Led Carbon Removal RFP: Key Insights for Leadership

- What were buyers actually prioritising in the selection process?
- Which pathways and suppliers progressed, and why?
- How were price, delivery risk, durability, and scalability balanced?
- What partnerships, intermediaries, and stakeholders were critical to getting the deal over the line?
- What does this process reveal about the next generation of corporate CDR procurement?

Correcting Course: Lessons from a Market Coming of Age
- Which assumptions about delivery, financing, procurement, and scale have proven wrong as the market has matured?
- What failures, delays, and unexpected challenges have taught the industry its most valuable lessons?
- How are developers, buyers, investors, and insurers adapting to a market where execution matters more than ambition?
- What must change now to avoid repeating the mistakes of carbon removal's first generation?
2026 Summit Themes
Explore the critical pillars shaping the future of carbon removal in Europe.
Honest Lessons from the Frontlines
Moving beyond polished success stories to share the failures, bottlenecks, and hard-earned lessons shaping the future of carbon removal.
The Buyer Intention Gap
Thousands of companies have net-zero commitments. A fraction have purchased a single tonne of carbon removal. This session gets inside the organisation - CFO objections, procurement barriers, board risk appetite, and standards confusion - to ask what it actually takes to move a corporate buyer from intention to purchase order.
Who Sets the Rules? The New Premium Standard for [EU] Certified Removals
From COP31 and the CRCF to SBTi, VCMI, ICVCM, CSRD, and the EU Buyers’ Club, the rules for carbon removal are rapidly evolving. Explore how companies can navigate emerging standards, manage risk, and build credible procurement strategies.
Trust Is the Product: Why MRV Will Make or Break the CDR Market
We move beyond methodology to ask the harder question: who bears the cost of verification, who sets the standard, and what does genuinely scalable MRV infrastructure look like for a market that needs to reach gigatonne scale?
Flight Path to Net Zero: Aviation's Carbon Horizon
With free EU emission allowances ending in 2026, airlines must now pay for all pollution. This financial shift has turned aviation into a primary driver of demand for permanent carbon removal.
Unlocking Commercial Markets in the Global South
As project development accelerates across Africa, Latin America, and Asia, how can buyers, investors, and developers create the long-term demand signals, offtake structures, and financing mechanisms needed to scale deployment and attract capital?

De-risking Carbon Removal Offtakes: Finance, Insurance, and Bankability in Practice
