With the long term goal of holding the increase in the global average temperature to well below 2°C and "to pursue efforts to limit the temperature increase to 1.5°C", the Paris Agreement puts renewed attention on the portfolio of technologies needed to achieve consistent emission reductions...

Carbon Capture and Storage (CCS) is regarded as one of the most important technologies to mitigate climate change while providing fossil-fuel based energy security. During the past decade, projects in support of the development and deployment of the technology have been initiated across the...

With the long term goal of holding the increase in the global average temperature to well below 2°C and "to pursue efforts to limit the temperature increase to 1.5°C", the Paris Agreement puts renewed attention on the portfolio of technologies needed to achieve consistent emission reductions...

This paper examines the detailed provisions on clean energy technology deployment under the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change (UNFCCC), with a particular focus on the design of international cooperation under Article 6 of the 2015 Paris Agreement and on the critical role of...

Affordable net-zero carbon electricity systems are critical in achieving a net-zero carbon economy, and California, who has long been a leader in climate policy, established a goal to reach a 100% clean grid by 2045. A capacity expansion and dispatch model is used to assess large-scale...

This chapter investigates the trends in international and European legal and policy regulation of the process related to carbon capture and storage (CCS). The global endeavor that seeks to limit carbon dioxide emissions has come to recognize CCS as an indispensable ally. This chapter offers an...

We model the value chain of Carbon Capture, transport and Storage (CCS) by focusing on the decisions taking by actors involved in either capture, transport or storage of CO2. Plants emitting CO2 are located along a Salop circle. If these invest in carbon capture facilities, the captured CO2 is...
