The State Opening of the 171st Storting in Oslo today. An old tradition at the beginning of a new parliamentary session with His Majesty the King delivering the Speech from the Throne and the youngest member of the Government presenting the State of the Realm Address. It is always a great honour for Ambassador David Červenka to be invited to the Storting and to witness Norwegian democracy at work. Such gathering provides as well a valuable opportunity to discuss with Norwegian partners about shared priorities. #Stortinget #Parliament #Norway

Summing up the two-day inspirational mission to Iceland Czech Deputy Minister of the Environment Mr Ivo Marcin stressed: “In addition to sharing experiences, we also see great potential for cooperation between Czech and Icelandic companies. We believe that the established contacts will contribute to the development of joint projects in the field of geothermal energy, CO₂ capture and storage, and other clean technologies.” Thank you Minister Jóhann Páll Jóhannsson and Rannís Director General Ágúst Hjörtur Ingþórsson for hosting the Czech delegation and for your kind cooperation. #Czechia #Iceland #EEA #business #cooperation #environment #energy #ekonomickadiplomacie

Náměstek ministra životního prostředí Ivo Marcin shrnul dvoudenní inspirační misi na Island: Vedle sdílení zkušeností vidíme velký potenciál také pro spolupráci českých a islandských firem. Věříme, že navázané kontakty přispějí k rozvoji společných projektů v oblasti geotermální energetiky, zachytávání a ukládání CO₂ a dalších čistých technologií. #Cesko #Island #EEA #ekonomickadiplomacie

Czech inspirational mission to Iceland continues. Carbon capture and storage technologies could be an important tool, especially for industries such as cement production, the chemical industry, or metallurgy. Without such solutions, it will be difficult to achieve climate goals while maintaining production and jobs in Europe. #Czech #industry #Iceland #CCS #CarbFix #ekonomickadiplomacie

Inspirační mise náměstka životního prostředí Iva Marcina s českými firmami na Island pokračuje. Technologie zachytávání a ukládání uhlíku mohou být důležitým nástrojem zejména pro odvětví, jako jsou cementářství, chemický průmysl nebo metalurgie. Bez podobných řešení bude obtížné dosáhnout klimatických cílů a současně udržet výrobu a pracovní místa v Evropě. #Cesko #prumysl #Island #CCS #CarbFix #ekonomickadiplomacie

Due to its unique conditions Iceland is the world leader in geothermal energy and carbon capture and storage. For the Czech Republic, Icelandic experience is valuable in seeking pathways to decarbonisation of industry while simultaneously preserving its competitiveness. Deputy Minister of the Environment Mr Ivo Marcin, accompanied by 🇨🇿 business delegation discussed these topics with Minister of the Environment, Energy and Climate Mr Jóhann Páll Jóhannsson and other 🇮🇸 partners in Reykjavík. #CzechRepublic #Iceland #geothermal #CCS

Island patří mezi světové lídry v oblasti geotermální energetiky a ukládání a využívání oxidu uhličitého. Pro ČR jsou zdejší zkušenosti cenné při hledání cest k dekarbonizaci průmyslu a současně zachování jeho konkurenceschopnosti. Tato a další témata konzultoval náměstek ministra životního prostředí Ivo Marcin v doprovodu podnikatelské delegace s islandskými partnery v Reykjavíku. #Cesko #Island #geotermalnienergie #CCS #ekonomickadiplomacie
