The Negative Emissions Platform (NEP), the Association Française pour les Émissions Négatives (AFEN) and the German Association for Negative Emissions (DVNE) are partnering up to offer a joint membership to large companies.
Joint membership for large companies
The urgency of large-scale carbon dioxide removal (CDR) to achieve climate targets is undisputed. We are at a critical juncture where Europe can establish itself as a global leader in this important climate technology. Yet, more needs to be done to achieve this.
To advance this mission, the Negative Emissions Platform (NEP), the Association Française pour les Émissions Négatives (AFEN) and the German Association for Negative Emissions (DVNE) are joining forces. Together, we represent the interests of European companies committed to climate action – and are now offering a joint membership.
This strategic collaboration enables the cross-border pooling of knowledge, tools and contacts in Europe. In this way, we enable our members and countries to take advantage of the enormous economic and industrial opportunities offered by carbon dioxide removal.
Tapping into Europe's CDR potential
The momentum is already building. Forward-thinking companies across Europe recognise that CDR is not only an environmental necessity but also a competitive advantage. These pioneers are investing in carbon dioxide removal, driving demand and demonstrating that sustainable business practices and profitable growth go hand in hand.
Our cooperation model will further strengthen the leadership role of these companies by creating stronger networks, political advocacy and accelerated market development. When Europe's economic powerhouses pull together, they mobilise the financial, regulatory and political commitment needed to make CDR a cornerstone of Europe's green economy. In this way, we will create new industries, new jobs and new competitive advantages that will shape Europe's economic future.
This is European climate leadership in action. Join us!
