Carbon dioxide utilization is increasingly attracting interest. CO2 utilization involves a multitude of processes and chemical reactions. In this context, the goal of this review is to analyze the techno‐economic feasibility, sustainability, and social opportunities of CO2 utilization, as a possible contribution to CO2 mitigation in Europe. Industries and the most recent European projects related to carbon capture and utilization are also discussed, illustrating Europe's performance dynamics in science, research, and innovation in this field. The latest developments in CO2 utilization are thus reviewed, including chemicals, mineral carbonation, and biological uses. This study examines a few CO2‐based pathways at high level of maturity covering a wide range of applications, and discusses their current technical feasibility, economic viability, sustainability, and social aspects. They are then evaluated using several indicators to provide a figure of merit, where qualitative results are intended. The mapping and ranking of CO2 utilization pathways may provide a valuable means in prioritizing support and funding to facilitate the development of large‐scale CO2 utilization projects in Europe. Finally, key challenges and opportunities are discussed. The review shows that CO2 utilization may not be a complete solution for Europe, but will support climate change objectives, circular economy, and resource and energy security.

This paper investigates the potential role of the electricity interconnectors in improving the security of supply in Great Britain (GB) in 2030. Real electricity demand and price data for GB and France in 2016 were used to understand the relationship between power exchange between the two countries and their wholesale electricity prices. A linear programming optimisation model was developed to find the economic power dispatch. Two interconnection links were considered; two-way trade interconnector with a capacity of 5.4 GW and a 12.3 GW import-only interconnector between GB and other states. The GB-France link transmits electricity from cheaper system to the more expensive one. The total electricity demand in 2030 will be 406 TWh. Gas-fired power plants w/wo CCS will provide 83 TWh of the total electricity demand, whereas nuclear power plants will produce 74 TWh. In addition, wind farms and solar PVs are expected to deliver $120 TWh electricity. CHP units will provide 88 TWh electricity in 2030. The electricity traded between GB and France in 2030 was found to be 33 TWh, which is 160% larger compared with 2016. The power import from France is about 27 TWh and occurs in 59% of the time. For 64% of the time, the interconnector with France is fully loaded. The electricity imported via the 12.3 GW interconnector in 2030 is 1 TWh and mainly occurs during winter-time when the demand in GB is high. De-rated capacity margin was calculated based on instantaneous electricity demand and varies between −2% and 139%. The impact of the price of the imported electricity via the 12.3 GW link was investigated. Increasing the price of the imported electricity via the 12.3 GW link results in a higher capacity factor for all the generation options except the 12.3 GW interconnector link. K E Y W O R D S de-rated capacity margin, interconnector, linear programming, security of supply 1 | INTRODUCTION Exchanging electricity via interconnectors allows access to affordable energy supplies and has the potential to improve security of electricity supply. Interconnectors can reduce the electricity price for consumers by importing power at times when it is cheaper in the neighbouring countries. When the national demand is low, interconnectors enable the surplus power to be exported to a wider market.

“…As illustrated in Equations (1)(2)(3)(4)(5)(6)(7)(8)(9)(10)(11)(12), different reduction potentials are required to obtain different reduction products for CO 2 RR. Experimentally, researchers tend to define the onset potential as the potential where the products of ECO 2 RR can be firstly detectable.…”

million (ppm), which is ≈50% higher than that of the pre-industrial level (280 ppm). [1] The consequent climate change (the average temperature increase of 0.8 °C above the pre-industrial level) causes global warming, one of the top environmental concerns. [2] To maintain the sustainable development of the society, the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) recently recommended the warming limit to 1.5 °C rather than 2.0 °C to reduce catastrophic climate change issues, requiring the commitment to take action to control global carbon emission. [3] Under the Paris Agreement, many countries endeavor to reduce greenhouse gas emissions gradually by 2030. [4] The carbon capture and storage (CCS) is a feasible strategy to lower the CO 2 emissions substantially. Long-term storage issues related to the leakage of CO 2 and the lack of economic incentives limited its development. [5] The CO 2 reduction reactions (CO 2 RR) that convert CO 2 into other value-added carbon products could provide a well alternative to the utilization of the captured CO 2 , which not only contributes to the mitigation of CO 2 emission but also offers useful products that can serve as fuels such as CO, HCOOH, CH 3 OH, and CH 4. [6] Moreover, the drive power of CO 2 RR could come from renewable energy resources, such as solar, wind, and hydraulic resources, which indicates that in a green concept, CO 2 RR could complete the carbon loop and potentially solve the issues of global warming and energy crisis simultaneously. [7] 1.1. Fundamental Reaction Pathways of CO 2 RR CO 2 RR is not thermodynamically and kinetically favorable. Every reduction pathway demands a certain amount of energy input. Equations (1-13) shows the reaction steps involved in CO 2 RR (in pH = 7 aqueous solution, vs Normal Hydrogen Electrode (NHE)). [8] As illustrated, it requires a significant amount of reorganizational energy between the linear molecule CO 2 and the bent radical anion − CO 2 • (Equation (1)). When coupling with proton in the reaction, the required reaction energy decreases (Equations (2-12)). Aqueous media with H 2 O molecules become ideal for providing proton into the CO 2 RR system. The reduction potential of hydrogen evolution reaction (HER) (Equation (13)) is close to that of CO 2 RR. It makes HER a competitive reaction against CO 2 RR during the reduction CO 2 reduction reaction (CO 2 RR) provides a promising strategy for sustainable carbon fixation by converting CO 2 into value-added fuels and chemicals. In recent years, considerable efforts are focused on the development of transition-metal (TM)-based catalysts for the selectively electrochemical CO 2 reduction reaction (ECO 2 RR). Co-based catalysts emerge as one of the most promising electrocatalysts with high Faradaic efficiency, current density, and low overpotential, exhibiting excellent catalytic performance toward ECO 2 RR for CO and HCOOH productions that are economically viable. The intrinsic contribution of Co and the synergistic effects in Co-hybrid catalysts play essential roles for ...
