Strategies for the Evaluation and Assessment of Ocean based Carbon Dioxide Removal (SEAO2-CDR)

The SEAO2-CDR project is expanding our understanding of mCDR, and looking to offer advice to evaluate mCDR. We are developing and expanding a framework that offers advice and guidance to everyone involved in marine carbon dioxide removal (mCDR).

 

 

 

Our project opens the door to answering questions such as:

  • How efficient is a technique in removing CO2 over its entire lifetime? And how much does it cost to remove CO2? And how do we determine that? [WP2]
  • How do you know how much CO2 is removed?[WP3]
  • What do the general public and stakeholders need to be well informed about marine CO2 removal?[WP4]
  • How to regulate marine-based CO2 removal in national or European regulation? [WP5]
  • What do companies need to set up a business on marine CO2 removal? [WP6]
  • How to model the effects CO2 removal accurately, worldwide? [WP7]

Our research enables European citizens, policy makers and entrepreneurs to make well-informed decisions. Our activities are not an expression of being in favour or being against mCDR, or a particular mCDR technique.

Who we are

The SEAO2-CDR project runs from June 2023 until June 2027. Our consortium consists of 14 partners from across Europe. Our funding comes from the EU and the UKRI, and is 6,9 million Euro.
