Analysis of the legislative and regulatory framework of CO₂ capture, transport and storage systems in targeted European countries

Abstract The installation and operation of infrastructures for carbon capture, transport storage CO 2 to reduce emissions from power plants carbon-intensive industries, is major importance fulfil the targets mitigation greenhouse gas emissions. industrial sector considered a contributor Carbon dioxide Capture geological Storage (CCS) currently only technology be able directly decarbonise facilities such as cement, petrochemical, steel without requiring complete rethinking sectors. Although CCS technologies contribute climate change mitigation, number installations constructed in Europe weaker than expected, among others, due several aspects legal framework implementation gaps. For this purpose, MOF4AIR European project performed an overall assessment legislative regulatory EU on systems . This paper presents results assessment; analysis conditions participating countries; comparison between examined countries set recommendations improvement framework.
