Scholarly Work

Norma Nielson, Allan Ingelson, Anne Kleffner

This article examines emerging legislative frameworks, in a limited number of jurisdictions, that have been adopted to manage long-term liability: viz., Wyoming, Kansas, Montana, the European Union (EU), and Australia.

Evaluating the development of carbon capture and storage technologies in the United States

2010

Scholarly Work

Klaas van Alphen, Paul M. Noothout, Marko P. Hekkert, Wim C. Turkenburg

This paper outlines a policy strategy that stimulates technological learning, facilitates collaboration and coordination in CCS actor networks, creates financial and market incentives for the technology, and provides supportive regulation on CCS.

2009

Scholarly Work

Caroline Van de bergh

This article provides a comparative analyses whether biochar is waste in the EU and the US and whether the pyrolysis treatment, transportation and storage of biochar may be exempted from the regulatory burden placed on the classification of waste.

Assessing a Liability Regime for Carbon Capture and Storage

2009

Scholarly Work

Elizabeth J. Wilson, Alexandra B. Klass, Sara Bergan

Paving The Legal Path For Carbon Sequestration From Coal

2009

Scholarly Work

Victor B. Flatt

This article focuses on the need to address carbon capture and sequestration jurisdiction (what is CCS and how it should be permitted), liability (who is responsible for any harm), and property rights (who owns the various pieces of a CCS system).

Reconciling King Coal and Climate Change: A Regulatory Framework for Carbon Capture and Storage

2009

Scholarly Work

Will Reisinger, Nolan Moser, Trent A. Dougherty, James D. Madeiros

This note examines the legal uncertainty surrounding the acquisition of storage space for carbon dioxide, the injection process, and the liability for post injection incidents as disincentives to the large-scale deployment of CCS in the United States

Carbon Capture and Sequestration: Identifying and Managing Risks

2009

Scholarly Work

Alexandra B. Klass, Elizabeth J. Wilson

This article suggests ways in which risks of CCS can be minimized and managed and considers more broadly when or if CCS should be deployed or whether its use should be limited or rejected in favor of other solutions.
