Green gases on the horizon
In the context of the Fit for 55 and the upcoming Green Gas Package, COGEN Europe joins industry stakeholders in calling for for a European Union (EU) policy framework that promotes the production, market uptake and system integration of renewable and decarbonised gases. The upcoming Green Gas Package will play a key role in aligning gas market regulation with the
2021
COGEN Europe supports an ambitious, comprehensive and predictable legislative framework towards achieving the European Union''s goal of ''net zero'' greenhouse gas emissions by 2050. We believe that the process of setting an emissions target for 2040 must take into account the role of energy efficient solutions and technologies, including
Combining EU ETS with support for low-carbon alternatives
In this regard, high-efficiency cogeneration (HE-CHP) can and should play a crucial role in both decarbonising the European economy, and in the carbon-neutral world of tomorrow, being the optimal, feasible, resource-efficiency technology, maximizing primary energy savings. Through simultaneous generation of heat and electricity in the most
The Role of Cogeneration in Europe''s Energy Transition
Cogeneration at the heart of European industry and communities 6 In the European Union: • Cogeneration saves 356 TWh of energy every year, equivalent to the total energy consumption of 23 million homes or the entire EU pulp & paper sector1. • Cogeneration prevents approximately 200 million tonnes2 of CO 2 emissions every year,
Membership
One of COGEN Europe''s multiple objectives is to create opportunities at the national and local levels for the sector to grow via the development at European level of a favourable environment (supportive energy policies, enabling research development deployment and innovation framework, allowance of funding opportunities for developers and operators, etc.).
