DeCarbon Copenhagen 2026

Copenhagen marks the destination for Europe’s decarbonisation journey as DeCarbon Copenhagen 2026 convenes global leaders across biomass trade, low-carbon energy, data centre sustainability, and the fast-evolving world of carbon removal. This 2-in-1 summit brings together the 9th Biomass Trade & Power Europe and CarbonSmart Digital Futures, offering two dedicated conference tracks and a shared networking platform.

 The program flows seamlessly:

• 24–25 Feb: 9th Biomass Trade & Power Europe – deep dive into biomass supply chains, trade flows, and bioenergy in Europe’s evolving energy mix.
• 25–26 Feb: CarbonSmart Digital Futures – exploring the intersection of AI, data centres, low carbon and renewable energy integration, digital carbon markets, and the scaling of carbon removal solutions.
• 25 Feb afternoon onwards: Both agendas converge, creating a unique opportunity for biomass stakeholders, energy corporates, hyperscalers and data centres operators, technology innovators, and CDR investors to engage in cross-cutting discussions and a combined networking cocktail reception.

With Copenhagen emerging as a hub for low-carbon energy systems, sustainable data centres, and carbon removal investments, this summit is the place where traditional energy players and next-generation innovators connect to forge the pathways to net zero.
