EU Parliament Approves the Carbon Removal Certification Framework and Net Zero Industry Act

The Parliament has approved the Carbon Removal Certification Framework (CRCF) and the Net Zero Industry Act (NZIA), demonstrating its support for scaling up carbon dioxide removal (CDR) capacity in the EU – part of the bloc’s strategy in reaching climate neutrality by 2050. The Parliament also endorsed the proposed changes of the ITRE Committee on the NZIA which are considered a substantial improvement of the Commission’s proposal and recognize carbon dioxide removal (CDR) as part of the net zero technologies in the scope of the Act.
