Fully booked: The French-Norwegian Green Industry Forum 2024

Read about the reinforced French-Norwegian partnership for carbon capture, utilization and storage here.

A French-Norwegian approach aims to address challenges and find solutions for a greener industry through bilateral cooperation. This approach aims to decarbonize existing industries throughout the entire value chain and foster the creation of new green industries.

The Norwegian CCS Association, part of Polytechnic Society, and the French Club CO₂ signed a Memorandum of Understanding during the French-Norwegian Hydrogen & CCS Forum in Paris in 2022. The MoU sets forth areas of collaboration between French and Norwegian actors regarding carbon capture and storage (CCS).
