As part of Oslo Innovation Week 2026, Wallonia Export & Investment Agency will organise a focused session dedicated to innovation, industrial needs and cooperation opportunities in the CCUS value chain. The session will bring together Belgian/Walloon and Norwegian startups, industry representatives, clusters, investors and innovation actors to explore how emerging technologies can contribute to scalable carbon capture, utilisation and storage solutions.
Why CCUS, Norway – Belgium/Wallonia?
Carbon capture, utilisation and storage is an important part of the industrial decarbonisation toolbox, especially for sectors where emissions are difficult to avoid. Norway has developed a strong ecosystem around CO₂ capture, transport, storage, industrial pilots and offshore infrastructure, notably through the Northern Lights project, while Wallonia and Belgium bring complementary industrial challenges and expertise in hard-to-abate sectors such as steel, lime, cement and chemicals. With initiatives and actors working on CCUS and industrial decarbonisation from both countries, the session will explore how these complementary strengths can support practical cooperation across the CCUS value chain, connect and open the door to new partnerships.
Organizers:
