The POWER CO₂ Days! | September 7–9, 2026 | Lyon, France Day 3: Hybrid Pathways Hybrid approaches combining electrochemical conversion and biological processes is a strategy in CO₂ valorization. We are excited to welcome Isabelle Rougeaux as a Keynote Speaker to present her team's research, co-authored with Yassine Naciri and Gatien Fleury on the POWERCO2 project! In this project, carbon-based molecules generated via CO₂ electroreduction are utilized as complementary substrat

The POWER CO₂ Days! | September 7–9, 2026 | Lyon, France Day 2: Advancing TRL We are thrilled to welcome Bruno Chaudret as a Plenary Speaker to discuss the field of Magnetically Induced Catalysis (MIC) applied to CO2 conversion. MIC exploits magnetically active materials to trigger or enhance catalytic processes. By applying external magnetic fields, researchers can achieve localized and selective energy transfer through magnetic induction heating. These "self-heating" cataly

The POWER CO₂ Days! | September 7–9, 2026 | Lyon, France Day 1: Next frontier C3+ We are proud to welcome Catherine Batiot-Dupeyrat (UMR CNRS 7285 – IC2MP, Université de Poitiers) who will present her team's latest research: "Investigation of the Ni–Ce–Zr Synergy for Efficient CO₂ Methanation under Non-Thermal Plasma." (Co-authored with Nathan Cordier and Elodie Fourré) About the Research: In the push for efficient CO₂ conversion with non-thermal plasma, the team synthesized

The POWER CO₂ Days! | Sept 7–9, 2026 | Lyon Day 3: Hybrid Approaches Natural metalloenzymes are often the most proficient catalysts available for activating challenging small molecules like CO₂, CO, and H₂. We are thrilled to welcome Christine Cavazza, Head of the Bioenergy & Environment Team at CEA Grenoble, to discuss their immense potential in sustainable energy technologies and learn about her latest research breakthroughs. In the search for new catalytic devices, redox m

The POWER CO₂ Days! September 7 - 9 2026 in Lyon Day 2, 8th September: Nano Engineering How can we engineer highly efficient interfaces to drive biological CO₂ conversion? We are excited to share that Alan Le Goff will be presenting his Keynote: "Engineering of the bio/nano-interface for enzymatic CO₂-to-CO conversion and the water-gas shift reaction." To improve the efficiency and stability of supported enzymes, developing specialized enzyme-electrode interfaces is a critica

The POWER CO₂ Days! September 7 - 9 2026 in Lyon Day 1, 7th September: Next Frontier C3+ A practical strategy to achieve CO2-to-added value molecules conversion lies in first reducing carbon dioxide to its monoxide. CO then acts as a versatile CO2 surrogate since it undergoes conversion routes, original for their mechanism and final products, for example isobutene. This talk will address how does CO hydrogenation over ZrO₂ catalysts selectively produce branched hydrocarbons

What if we could capture CO2 and, using renewable energy, transform it into everything from methanol to complex molecules?
