Abstract:
The inclusion of CO2 capture and storage (CCS) in the Kyoto Protocol’s Clean Development Mechanism (CDM) is still subject to controversy and discussion. Although the debate seems to proceed in a direction of more open information exchange between Parties and stakeholders, noticeable progress is slow. This paper discusses substantial results on CCS in the CDM based on three recent results: the outcomes of a capacity building effort in Africa, the development of new and improved methodologies for hypothetical CCS projects, and a new estimate of the market impact of CCS natural gas operations on the CDM.
