C-SINK Project

The C-SINK project aims to establish the foundations for a standardized and transparent European Carbon Dioxide Removal (CDR) market. The project’s overarching vision is to tackle climate change by complementing existing EU and international mitigation efforts through the responsible deployment of CDR technologies.

Navraj Singh Ghaleigh, Senior Lecturer in Climate Law, leads the project’s work package, “Legal framework, regulatory barriers and policy recommendations” which is undertaking a comprehensive regulatory and legal mapping of CDR in the EU, and engaging with CDR stakeholders (technology providers, demonstrators, civil society, law and finance sector actors, regulators, etc). In this he is assisted by Dr Justin Macinante and Luka Štrubelj.

Overview of the C-SINK Project

The C-SINK consortium includes 24 organisations from 11 countries with complementary skills and expertise in the different CDR technologies, the writing of CEN and ISO standards, climate law, carbon trading, stakeholder engagement among other relevant environmental and social issues.
