How Switzerland is Pioneering CO2 Infrastructure - with Sophie Wenger

How Switzerland is Pioneering CO2 Infrastructure - with Sophie Wenger

In this episode of The CDR Policy Scoop, Sebastian Manhart and Eve Tamme are joined by Sophie Wenger, Climate Policy Officer at the Federal Office for the Environment, for a deep dive into Switzerland’s approach to scaling carbon capture and removal.


Recorded on January 12, the conversation explores how Switzerland is developing a holistic strategy for CCS and CDR, with a strong focus on CO₂ transport infrastructure as the key enabler for scale. Sophie explains why transport is often the missing link in national CDR strategies and why getting regulation right is both technically and politically challenging.


The episode also unpacks the main regulatory sticking points around CO₂ transport in Switzerland, what lessons other countries can draw from the Swiss experience, and how infrastructure planning, cross-border cooperation, and long-term climate targets need to align to unlock durable removals at scale.
