Carbon Capture, Utilization and Storage (CCUS) technologies involve the capture of carbon dioxide (CO₂) from fuel combustion or industrial processes, the transport of this CO₂ via ship or pipeline, and either its use as a resource to create valuable products or services or its permanent storage underground.
Authorizes the exercise of eminent domain authority for carbon dioxide pipelines which have received construction certificates from the Kentucky State Board on Electric Generation and Siting.
This paper proposes a hybrid legal framework for carbon dioxide sequestration that combines a traditional regulatory regime with a novel two-tiered system of liability that is calibrated to objective site characteristics.

This paper reviews the implementation issues of the EU CCS Directive that may impact the deployment of large-scale CO2 capture and storage in the Netherlands and Europe.
This paper develops ‘lessons learned’ from past management of radioactive waste (RW) that could help to both structure liability and ultimately deploy future RW and geological CO2 storage projects.

This paper presents the overall circumstances for CCS development in China, including the threats and opportunities for large scale deployment of CCS and the initial barriers and advantages that China currently possesses.
This report presents recommendations for a CCS demonstration roadmap in China, highlighting the technical, institutional, legal, and regulatory challenges.

This paper discusses the major features of the International Energy Agency (IEA) CCS Model Regulatory Framework and how it can be best distributed and used to assist in the development of regulatory frameworks in all key regions of the world.
This paper seeks to provide insight into the drivers and barriers, and the possible government responses needed, to overcome hurdles towards large scale CCS deployment in the Netherlands.
