Liability and Compensation for Damage Resulting from CO2 Storage Sites

2016

Scholarly Work

Michael Faure

The goal of this article is to sketch how CCS liability rules could be developed, and to present a compensation mechanism that takes into account the particular difficulties arising with CCS, especially the long-tail risk of a potential CO2 release.
