Die Bedeutung von Carbon Management für ein klimaneutrales Deutschland
Summary
The document asserts that Germany cannot reach its 2045 climate neutrality goals without carbon management technologies. It estimates that 3-17 million tonnes of CO2 from unavoidable industrial emissions must be captured annually by 2045, alongside 17-47 million tonnes of negative emissions. To enable this, the author calls for a political roadmap, legal framework, and infrastructure development starting in the current decade.
Key insights
- Analysis of five leading scenarios from Ariadne, Agora Energiewende, Dena, and BDI indicates that climate neutrality in Germany by 2045 is unattainable without carbon management technologies.
- By 2045, Germany will need to capture and store between 3 and 17 million tonnes of CO2 annually from unavoidable industrial emissions, and between 17 and 47 million tonnes annually via negative emission technologies.
- Carbon management technologies must be ready for series application by 2030, with a requirement to capture and store up to 4 million tonnes of CO2 annually in that year.
- To ensure the necessary technological development, Germany requires a consistent roadmap in the next legislative period, including a clear political strategy for CCS, a valid legal framework, transport and storage infrastructure, and financial incentive systems.
