Is CCS still relevant?

Abstract

Does the commercial deployment of carbon capture and storage still make sense in the power generating sector when fuels, other than coal can be used? For countries where coal predominates is it worthwhile adopting what is still an expensive technology? Have governments, particularly those in the developed nations, been too reticent to say that overall, the economics don't stack up and Carbon Capture and Storage (CCS) is just too expensive? These are some of the areas explored in a study, “The Bottomless Pit: The Economics of Carbon Capture and Storage†. In this interview, the report's author Gordon Hughes, Professor of Economics at the University of Edinburgh, tells GHGS&T about his findings. The report is published by the Global Warming Policy Foundation.
