Carbon Capture and Storage : Emerging Legal and Regulatory Issues, Paperback / softback Book

Carbon Capture and Storage : Emerging Legal and Regulatory Issues Paperback / softback

Edited by Ian (Global CCS Institute) Havercroft, Richard (University College London, UK) Macrory Hon KC, Richard B. Stewart

Paperback / softback

Description

Carbon Capture and Storage (CCS) is increasingly viewed as one of the most significant ways of dealing with greenhouse gas emissions.

Critical to realising its potential will be the design of effective legal regimes at national and international level that can handle the challenges raised but without stifling a new technology of potential great public benefit.

These include: long-term liability for storage; regulation of transport; the treatment of stored carbon under emissions trading regimes; issues of property ownership; and, increasingly, the sensitivities of handling the public engagement and perception.

Following its publication in 2011, Carbon Capture and Storage quickly became required reading for all those interested in, or engaged by, the need to implement regulatory approaches to CCS.

The intervening years have seen significant developments globally. Earlier legislative models are now in force, providing important lessons for future legal design.

Despite these developments, the growth of the technology has been slower in some jurisdictions than others.

This timely new edition will update and critically assess these updates and provide context for the development of CCS in 2018 and beyond.
