Is CCS Dead and if not how can it be resuscitated?

Following the UK government’s decision to cancel its £1bn competition for carbon capture and storage (CCS) technology at the end of November the future of of CCS in the UK now looks very uncertain. Energy Futures Lab in association with the British Institute of Energy Economics and the Energy Technologies Institute are hosting a panel discussion on the possible future of Carbon Capture and Storage in the UK. The event will include a panel of experts from industry and academia putting their view across and taking questions from the audience. After the event there will be a drinks reception to continue on the discussion around this pressing issue for the UK’s energy sector. The panel discussion  at Imperial College London was chaired by Sir Ed Davey, the former Secretary of State for Energy and Climate Change. He was joined by a panel including: Professor Geoff Maitland, Director of the Qatar Carbonates and Carbon Storage Research Centre Dr Graeme Sweeney, Chairman of Zero Emissions Platform coalition Mike Thompson, Head of Carbon Budgets for the Committee on Climate Change Jim Ward, Business Read more…

The CCC Review of Bioenergy

Dr Ute Collier, Committee on Climate Change Discusses the nature of bioenergy in respect to feedstocks, conversion processes, and the potential end uses (heat and/or power, liquid fuels and gaseous fuels), considering current UK production levels. The review seeks to assess the potential role for bioenergy in meeting the carbon budgets, taking account of lifecycle emissions and other sustainability concerns as well as alternative uses for bioenergy feedstocks. It considers the role for bioenergy across different sectors and concludes that around 10% bioenergy penetration may be required to meet the 2050 target, and that this could be sustainable. Key priorities should be to develop CCS, develop bioenergy options, and invest in a range of other low carbon technologies, such as electric vehicles and heat pumps.

Pathways to a low carbon economy – the role of natural gas and biofuels

Ben Taylor, Shell To 2050 there is an expectation of rising energy demand, increasing supply pressure and growing impacts from climate change. Shell’s response to the challenge is based on supplying more natural gas and biofuels, progressing CCS and improving the energy efficiency of their operations. Gas and biofuels are seen as essential components to a low carbon economy. Gas has both short and long-term advantages for the energy mix: coal to gas switching is the quickest and cheapest way to meet near term emission reduction targets; it is the cheapest and most flexible complementary supply to intermittent renewables; and with CCS is part of a long term solution.  In respect to the growing demand for mobility, for both passengers and freight, there is no single solution, but vehicle efficiency and lower CO2 liquid fuels, particularly biofuels will play important roles.

World Energy Outlook – A Glimpse into the Future of Energy

Dr. Fatih Birol, International Energy Agency Provides an overview and insights into the 2010 WEO. It is suggested that recently announced policies can make a difference, but fall well short of what is needed for a secure and sustainable energy future. In respect to oil, growing demand for mobility in emerging economies is driving up use, production is shifting away from crude and oil will come from fewer producers; the view is that the age of cheap oil is over, though policy action could bring lower international prices than would otherwise be the case. Gas is seen as playing a key role in meeting the world’s energy needs and it is asked whether we may be entering a golden age for gas. It is also recognised that the stronger penetration of natural gas could have profound implications for energy markets and the environment. Although renewables are entering the mainstream, long-term support is needed to boost their competitiveness. Detailed information is provided on climate change and emission reductions, with a recognition that a lack of ambition in Copenhagen/Cancun has increased the Read more…

Economies of Scale vs the Learning Curve

Joan MacNaughton, Alstom The global challenge is to reduce energy-related CO2 emissions and secure significant investment for generation plant. Meeting this challenge within the power sector will require a range of technology mixes as well as production efficiency and the use of CCS. For CCS, estimated costs per tonne of CO2 saved is expected to fall as the technology moves from demonstration to commercialisation, as has been seen through learning rates for other technologies. Performance is already there for a number of CCS demonstrations and the technology is expected to continue to improve, as costs fall. To enable this, a policy framework is needed, that: funds large scale demonstrations; links CCS to cap and trade systems; considers regional approaches to transport and storage; regulations; and public acceptance. A range of risks exist, including: commercial; policy and regulatory; political; and infrastructure needs. However, there is growing consensus over the need to decarbonise power by 2030, which is technologically feasible, should be based on all technology solutions and facilitated through the right policy framework.

World Energy Outlook Post Copenhagen IEA

Dr. Fatih Birol, International Energy Agency An overview of the 2010 WEO Reference Scenario to 2030 is provided, discussing: changes in primary energy demand; upstream oil and gas capital expenditures; oil production, issues and prices; and natural gas supply, transportation, prices and market trends. The 450 Scenario is also described in respect to how demand by fuel type needs to change and the abatement of CO2 emissions; along with some key facts relating to the EU, China and the Copenhagen Accord. Some key findings include: the financial crisis has halted the rise in global energy use, but its long-term upward path will resume, based on current policies; oil investment has fallen sharply, posing questions on medium term supply; a sizable glut of natural gas is looming; a 450 path will require massive investments but would bring substantial benefits; natural gas can play a key role as a bridge to a cleaner energy future; and the Copenhagen Accord takes significant steps forward on international climate policy but is not sufficient to limit temperature rise to 2 degrees.

Copenhagen and Decarbonising the Power Sector 2010

Joan MacNaughton, Alstom The need for decarbonising power generation is set out, in the context of global carbon emissions, abatement scenarios and investment implications. Alstom’s approach to these is described in terms of technology mixes (nuclear and renewables), production efficiency and CCS. Detailed information on CCS is provided covering: the various processes (post-combustion, oxy-combustion and pre-combustion); the economics of CCS; large scale demonstration; the need for a policy framework; and a roadmap for its development. This is set out against the approach within The Copenhagen Accord and what this may or may not deliver.
