1st July 2009
Topic(s): Carbon capture use and storage (CCUS)
CCS policy will ultimately be driven by the western Canadian provinces, which need CCS to be aviable alternative to dramatic emissions reductions. To date, the focus in Canada has been onfunding pilot CCS projects and not developing a coherent set of standards for the proper implementation of CCS activities.
In order to encourage CCS project development, Canadian jurisdictions will need to develop regulatoryframeworks able to deal with the unique qualities of CCS projects. Existing pipelines and mininglegislation could be adapted to this purpose.
