Summary <\/strong><\/p>

The aim of the BCF-2026 project is to prepare, arrange and report the BASRECCS regional conference \u201cBCF Baltic Carbon Forum 2026\u201d which will be held in October. The BCF is part of BASRECCS\u2019 long-term strategy to foster full-scale development of the climate change mitigation technologies carbon capture, utilization and storage (CCUS) in the Baltic Sea Region. The aim is to enable interested and engaged stakeholders to meet, discuss, share knowledge and experiences, and develop projects. The BCF will invite network members and other relevant experts, stakeholders and interested persons to be a speakers of BCF 2026.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t
