Federal government wants to enable the storage of CO₂ deep beneath the seabed off the German coast. This is intended to enable climate-damaging industries to achieve their emissions targets.
Green politician Robert Habeck: “The technology is safe.” The storage is aimed at industries that, as things currently stand, would be difficult or impossible to become climate neutral, explained Habecker. The federal government has agreed on an initial key issues paper, which is likely to be discussed in detail over the next few months.
