Obiettivo del progetto (Objective)
'This project aims at paving the road towards large-scale, Europe-wide infrastructure for the transport and injection of CO2 from zero-emission plants. The project will prepare for the optimum transition from initial small-scale, local initiatives towards large-scale CO2 transport and storage that is to start around 2020, with key stakeholders in the field of carbon capture, transport and storage. This transition, as well as the development of CO2 infrastructure will be studied by developing the business case in a number of realistic scenarios. The project will result in a roadmap for CO2 transport infrastructure, with 2020 as the target year for start of large-scale CCS in Europe. The roadmap will be defined for all levels considered in the project, ranging from technical to organizational, financial and societal.'
Introduzione (Teaser)
Europe will be scaling up carbon dioxide (CO2) capture from fossil fuel-based industries. Scientists are developing an infrastructure roadmap facilitating pan-European cross-border cooperation in large-scale transport and storage.
Descrizione progetto (Article)
CO2 is associated with global warming and climate change. Carbon capture and storage (CCS) technologies will be critical in preventing the release of large quantities of CO2 into the atmosphere from the use of fossil fuels.
Technology for large-scale capture of CO2 and its transportation is well developed. Storage in onshore and offshore sites via injection into geological formations is also being realised. However, integration and scale-up for large-scale European implementation beginning in 2020 is a major challenge.
European scientists initiated the 'Towards a transport infrastructure for large-scale CCS in Europe' (CO2Europipe) project to prepare the transition. Investigators are developing the business model based on a number of realistic scenarios.
CO2Europipe is defining the required infrastructure for transport as well as injection facilities at storage sites. Studies include assessment of technical and organisational aspects as well as legal and environmental hurdles to achieving a large-scale, European-wide CO2 transport infrastructure.
The largest potential offshore storage capacity resides in the North Sea. CO2Europipe analyses have demonstrated the need for thousands of kilometres of new pipeline. Along these same lines, the consortium encouraged permission for onshore storage to assure a level-playing field for Member States distant from the North Sea. Scientists recommended establishment of an expert authority to coordinate cross-border infrastructure development and minimise technical, regulatory and legislative cross-border transport issues.
A dedicated tax, revenue and burden-sharing system should be developed to financially support the infrastructure. Benefits of enhanced oil recovery (EOR) techniques, in which additional oil produced could help finance the infrastructure, were evaluated and suggestions made for rapid implementation.
CO2Europipe has already made important progress in defining the technical, legal and organisational issues related to a European-wide CCS infrastructure to begin in 2020. Cross-border cooperation among Member States will be critical on every level. The challenge is great but the potential rewards are greater.
