Mapping Multi-Level Policy Incentives for Bioenergy With Carbon Capture and Storage in Sweden

2020

Scholarly Work

Mathias Fridahl, Rob Bellamy, Anders Hansson, Simon Haikola

This paper asks to what extent and how existing UN, EU, and Swedish climate policy instruments incentivize BECCS research, development, demonstration, and deployment in Sweden.

Recognizing the Value of Collaboration in Delivering Carbon Dioxide Removal

2020

Scholarly Work

Mathilde Fajardy, Niall Mac Dowell

This study explores the mechanisms behind cost-optimal BECCS deployment with evolving regional CO2 removal targets and energy sectors to provide insights into choosing the right burden sharing principles and international trading mechanisms.

Prospects for bioenergy with carbon capture & storage (BECCS) in the United States pulp and paper industry

2020

Scholarly Work

W. J. Sagues, H. Jameel, D. L. Sanchez, S. Park

This paper estimates the technical and economic potential of integrating BECCS at pulp and paper mills in the United States with application of the existing federal tax credit for carbon capture and sequestration (Section 45Q).

Bioenergy with Carbon Capture and Storage (BECCS): Finding the win–wins for energy, negative emissions and ecosystem services—size matters

2020

Scholarly Work

Caspar Donnison, Robert A. Holland, Astley Hastings, Lindsay‐Marie Armstrong, Felix Eigenbrod, Gail Taylor

This paper identifies how smaller scale BECCS can be deployed to generate net welfare gains in the UK, and that landscape-scale and site-specific impacts need to be central to future BECCS policy developments.

Decision making in contexts of deep uncertainty – An alternative approach for long-term climate policy

2020

Scholarly Work

Mark Workman, Kate Dooley, Guy Lomax, James Maltby, Geoff Darch

This paper critically examines both the use of BECCS in mitigation scenarios and the decision making philosophy underlying the use of integrated assessment modelling to inform climate policy.

Tensions in the energy transition: Swedish and Finnish company perspectives on bioenergy with carbon capture and storage

2020

Scholarly Work

Emily Rodriguez, Adrian Lefvert, Mathias Fridahl, Stefan Grönkvist, Simon Haikola, Anders Hansson

This paper addresses the following research question: What are the barriers and driving forces to realize BECCS according to company representatives, including their views on policy and their role in contributing to national climate goals?

BECCS Deployment: A Reality Check

2019

Think Tank Report

Mathilde Fajardy, Alexandre Köberle, Niall Mac Dowell, Andrea Fantuzzi

This paper explores some of the questions that emerge in relation to BECCS around governance and scale.

Perceptions of Bioenergy with Carbon Capture and Storage in Different Policy Scenarios

2019

Scholarly Work

Rob Bellamy, Javier Lezaun, James Palmer

This paper investigates how different policies and incentives impact the public perception of BECCS.

Preconditions for Bioenergy with Carbon Capture and Storage (BECCS) in sub-Saharan Africa: The Case of Tanzania

2019

Scholarly Work

Anders Hansson, Mathias Fridahl, Simon Haikola, Pius Yanda, Noah Pauline, Edmund Mabhuye

This paper analyzes the pre-conditions for BECCS in Tanzania, and argues that negative BECCS-related emissions from Tanzania should not be assumed in global climate mitigation scenarios.

Bioenergy with Carbon Capture and Sequestration (BECCS): The Distracting Injustice of an Infeasible and Unlikely Technofix

2019

Scholarly Work

Rachel Smolker

This article, through the case study of BECCS, argues how indulging the concept of a technofix violates human rights and the Sustainable Development Goals.
