Zusammenfassung englisch
In November 2022, the European Commission put forward a proposal for a regulation for a Carbon Removal Certification Framework (CRCF). The principles laid out in the CRCF proposal of the European Commission and the proposed amendments by Council and European Parliament set minimum sustainability criteria. They are vague and require specification into executable criteria for certification. This report examines the robustness of the sustainability criteria included in the CRCF proposal and discuss different concepts for sustainability criteria. Quelle: www.umweltbundesamt.de

Assumptions on potentials for Carbon Dioxide Removals in the EU
(German Environment Agency, 2024)
This report analyses and critically reviews assumptions on natural carbon dioxide removal (CDR) and storage potentials with a view to the objectives of the EU Land Use, Land-Use Change and Forestry (LULUCF) and Carbon Removal Certification Framework (CRCF) legislation agreed until February 2024.Therefore, EU impact assessment reports that were published over a period of eight years were analysed and compared with estimates in the scientific literature. It shows that potentials from the impact assessments are rather at the lower end of the range. While highest CDR potentials for 2050 in studies underlying the EU legislation assume -400 to -500 Mt CO2eq, literature studies often operate in the range of -500 to -600 Mt CO2eq, with one estimate reaching almost -800 Mt CO2eq.
Certification of carbon dioxide removals
(Umweltbundesamt, 2023)
Am 30. November 2022 schlug die Kommission eine EU-Verordnung für die Zertifizierung von CO2-Entnahme (CRCF) vor. Die vorgeschlagene Verordnung könnte die Umweltintegrität der EU Klimapolitik gefährden. Dieses Risiko wird dadurch verstärkt, dass sich die EU nicht auf die Rolle von Kohlenstoffentnahme für die Zeit nach 2030 geeinigt hat. Dieser Bericht bewertet den Vorschlag der Kommission für das CRCF. Der Bericht gibt einen Überblick über die Hauptelemente des Vorschlags und bewertet sie. Zu den Bewertungskriterien gehören, (1) ob der Vorschlag die EU-Klimapolitik stärkt, (2) ob er die Umweltintegrität wahrt, (3) ob er zu einer starken Umweltpolitik beiträgt und (4) ob er andere für Kohlenstoffentnahme relevante Aspekte berücksichtigt, wie Energieverbrauch, Kosteneinsparungen, Innovationen und gesellschaftliche Akzeptanz.

Commission proposal for an EU carbon removal certification framework
(Umweltbundesamt, 2023)
In November 2022, the European Commission put forward a proposal for a regulation for a Carbon Removal Certification Framework (CRCF).This proposal includes various provisions that would empower the Commission to adopt delegated acts. Delegated acts are intended to specify a number of provisions of the regulation. This report examines whether the proposed provisions on delegation are in line with Article 290 of the Treaty on the Functioning of the EU (TFEU). In this regard, the analysis focusses on the question what elements of the proposal can be referred to as "essential elements" and hence must not be regulated in delegated acts.

Regulatory framework for the certification of carbon removals - remarks on the EU commission's roadmap
(Umweltbundesamt, 2022)
On 15.12.2021, the European Commission announces to create a legal framework in a communication on "Sustainable carbon cycles" according to which procedures for natural carbon sequestration and technical CO2 extraction and storage can be certified. By the end of 2022, the European Commission wants to make a legislative proposal. In this short position, the German Environment Agency points to gaps in the European Commission's proposal, refers to essential minimum requirements for the certification of carbon sequestrations and calls for a clearer integration of the certification framework with regard to its steering effect and its steering objective in the climate protection target architecture of the European Union.

Scientific support for the design of a certification framework for Carbon Dioxide Removals in the EU
(Umweltbundesamt, 2025)
This report summarizes the results of the research project “Scientific support for the design of an EU Carbon Removal Certification Framework” that provided support to national policy makers during the CRCF negotiation process.
Short typology of carbon dioxide removals
(Umweltbundesamt, 2023)
On 30 November 2022, the Commission proposed a voluntary EU carbon removal certification framework (CRCF) in order to promote carbon dioxide removal (CDR) through natural and technical approaches and spur investments into the respective technologies. This paper analyzes CDR typologies, compares them to CDR in the CRCF and identifies room for improvements. The aim is to stimulate the public debate by highlighting key aspects and implications of CDR activities that should be taken into account in implementing the framework and in future CDR policy-making.
