In order to mitigate climate change, new solutions are being sought by energy companies to reduce CO2 emissions from offshore production facilities. Carbon Capture and Storage (CCS) may be a technically and economically viable alternative option compared to electrification of offshore facilities...

The world needs to continue working to protect the climate—this is generally undisputed. However, there is no agreement on which technologies should be used to decarbonize the energy sector. Many international scenarios still assume a relevant role for nuclear power in the future. However, a...

This paper discusses the potential role of fossil natural gas (and other gases) in the process of the energy transformation in Europe on its way to complete decarbonization. Mainstream conventional wisdom has it that natural gas, perhaps in combination with other gases, should maintain an...

The environmental benefits and harms of information and communication technology (ICT) have been widely discussed in Finland since 2019. The climate impact of information and communication technology on the environment consists of three channels: procurement, the ICT sector's own carbon...

Canada has ratified the Kyoto Protocol while the United States, its main trading partner, have not. A major concern of Canadian industrial producers is the negative impact on competitiveness of programs designed to reduce greenhouse gas emissions (GHG). To alleviate this concern, the Government...

The 2016 Paris Agreement (UNFCCC Authors, 2015) is the latest of initiative to create an international consensus on action to reduce GHG emissions. However, the challenge of meeting its targets lies mainly in the intimate relationship between GHG emissions and energy production, which in turn...
