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.
