Coca-Cola Europacific Partners And University Of California Berkeley To Develop Technology Converting Air To Sugar

August 19, 2022: 12:00 AM EST

Coca-Cola Europacific Partners (CCEP) has announced a collaboration, through its innovation investment platform CCEP Ventures, with the University of California, Berkeley (UCB) to develop scalable methods of converting captured CO2 into sugar. CCEP Ventures’ initial investment with UCB will support foundational research which will focus on enabling the production of sugar from CO₂ on site and at an industrial level, with expectation of future investments to drive scale from lab to pilot phase. This investment supports CCEP’s journey to reach net zero greenhouse gas emissions by 2040. The development of lab scale prototypes could make the generation of essential raw and packaging materials more sustainable in the long-term by reducing some of the largest CO₂ contributors in supply chains, while saving material, transportation and logistics costs.
