Assessing the potential of low carbon fossil fuel/derived technologies: Developing modeling and analytical tools for assessing the potential contribution of carbon management to Canadian GHG emission Information
Summary There is a growing body of research estimating some aspect of CCS potential with respect to specific industrial applications that produce or could store carbon emissions. Most of this research is project specific: rich in technological, geological, industrial and perhaps economic information, but lacking integration into a broader systems analysis that assesses project prospects when other factors of social choice are considered. This research will develop and apply analytical tools that integrate information from several disciplines to assess the technical, economic, and social institutional policy potential for CCS deployment in Canada. These tools will enable governments, industry, environmentalists, and researchers to assess the potential contribution of CCS relative to other GHG emissions reduction options throughout Canada and within specific regions.
