CARBON HUB CPT01

The Carbon Hub CPT01 carbon capture and storage (CCS) project will be installed at �鶹��ý’s cement plant in Câmpulung, Central Romania. It will enable �鶹��ý to produce 2 million tons of near-zero cement per annum.

The EU Innovation Fund has selected Carbon Hub CPT01 for a grant of €144 million to co-finance the build and operation of the capture installation, complementing substantial co-investment by �鶹��ý and its partners.

The technology

Eastern Europe’s first full-scale onshore CCS project, Carbon Hub CPT01 will use proven technology to separate CO₂ from flue gases generated by the cement plant and our industrial partner, Carmeuse, which will then be transported for safe storage underground.

�鶹��ý is leading a consortium of industrial and academic partners covering the full CCS value chain to realize the project, and is collaborating with Romanian research institutes and government agencies.

We’re honored that the EU Innovation Fund is supporting our CCS project in Romania — a first for the Eastern European region – as we continue our mission to decarbonize the construction industry and scale our sustainable offering for our customers.
