VLAIO is preparing this call based on the Carbon Contracts for Difference (CCfD) model and has launched a public consultation to gather input from industry.

Focus on large-scale industrial CCS projects 

The future funding call targets large-scale, structural CCS projects in the Flemish process industry with a substantial direct CO2 reduction impact. The call is expected to launch no earlier than the second quarter of 2027 and will require prior approval from the European Commission. 

The public consultation is open to Flemish companies. Companies with annual emissions of at least 50,000 tonnes of CO2 will be informed directly about the consultation.
