    Instrumental funding to achieve the Baltic synchronisation with the Continental European Network

    Context of the synchronisation

    The pursuit of energy independence has always been important in the Baltics. Whilst formerly an "energy island", the Baltic States are connected to the European electricity network through electricity lines with Poland-Lithuania (LitPol Link, commissioned in 2015), Lithuania-Sweden (NordBalt, commissioned in 2015) and Estonia-Finland (Estlink 1 and Estlink 2, commissioned in 2006 and 2014 respectively).

  • Industrial Carbon Management: Interactive Stories

    Seizing the opportunity of industrial carbon management to enable and accelerate the EU transition to climate neutrality.

    Industrial carbon management (ICM) refers to a portfolio of technologies used to manage and abate CO 2  emissions from industrial  and energy production facilities, as well as to remove CO 2  from the atmosphere. 

    These include capturing CO 2  for storage (CCS), capturing CO 2  for utilisation (CCU), or removing CO 2  from the atmosphere, where permanent storage involves biogenic or atmospheric CO 2 . In addition, CO 2  transport infrastructure is a key enabler binding the different pathways together.
