Full in-person capacity!

Carbon markets play a fundamental role in corporate decarbonization strategies by providing an economic mechanism to incentivize the reduction of greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions. These markets encourage innovation and the adoption of clean technologies, promote transparency and emissions accounting, and facilitate the integration of sustainability into corporate strategies.

The Fundación Repsol Chair of Energy Transition at the Rovira i Virgili University is organizing this webinar to explore these carbon markets and the projects within them. 

This event takes place in English.

The path towards an environmentally sustainable aviation

Transport is responsible for up to 28.5% of CO2 emissions in the European Union. In this segment, aviation contributes to 13% of those emissions.

To meet the decarbonisation targets for this sector and align with the Paris Agreement, it is crucial to understand the pillars of decarbonization and to quantify the reduction of emission throughout the lifecycle of aircrafts. Energy efficiency and fuels with low or zero carbon footprint are fundamental, whether for general, commercial or military aviation.

The Energy Transition Chair of the Repsol Foundation at the Polytechnic University of Madrid is organising this webinar together with Ryanair and IATA to discuss these challenges and explore innovative solutions that can accelerate the decarbonisation of air transport, contributing to a more sustainable aviation.

Decarbonization potential of the paper industry

The paper industry is an important sector in Portuguese and Spanish industry and in the economies of both countries. Portugal and Spain are large paper and pulp producers in the European Union. The Commission has proposed a new EU target for 2030 to reduce greenhouse gas emissions by at least 55% compared to 1990 levels. This means accelerating the reduction of emissions in the paper industry, as well as in others related to waste circularity and water saving.

The Energy Transition Chair of the Repsol Foundation at Comillas ICAI is organizing this webinar, in which this major challenge facing the paper industry will be presented, as well as the main strategies that are being implemented, along with some solutions under development.

Carbon capture: analyzing the potential of Negative Emissions Technologies

In 2015, the Paris Agreement adopted the goal of limiting the rise in global temperature to 1.5ºC before the end of the 21st century. This goal was supported from a scientific point of view by the United Nations Special Report on Global Warming in 2018. To achieve this goal, it is necessary to move towards the goal of being net zero emissions by 2050, and Negative Emissions Technologies will be essential.

The Repsol Foundation Energy Transition Chair at the Rovira i Virgili University is organizing this webinar in which these technologies and their CO2 removal potential will be explored.
