US Department of Energy Carbon Capture & Sequestration (CCS) Research Status

 

Source

US Congressional Research Services for 7-5700, R42496, 10 Feb 2014

Description

This report aims to provide a snapshot of the US Department of Energy's (DOE) CCS program, including its current funding levels, together with some discussion of the program’s achievements and prospects for success in meeting its stated goals. 

Status

One project, the Kemper County Facility, has received $270 million from DOE under its Clean Coal Power Initiative Round 2 program, and is slated to begin commercial operation in late 2014. 

 

The 583 MW capacity facility anticipates capturing 65% of its CO2 emissions, making it equivalent to a new natural gas-fired combined cycle power plant. Cost overruns at the Kemper Plant, however, have raised questions over the relative value of environmental benefits due to CCS technology compared to construction costs of the facility and its effect on ratepayers.

Low Carbon Society Scenario Toward 2050: Indonesia Energy Sector

 

Source

Asia-Pacific Integrated Model (AIM) report, 2010. 

Description

This report assesses scenarios of a low carbon society (LCS) by 2050 in Indonesia especially in energy sector and associated actions and policies to achieve the LCS visions.

Findings

Three different scenarios were assumed (1) business as usual (2) countermeasure 1 which takes a moderate development path (3)  countermeasure 2 which envisions an active, quick changing and technology oriented society. 

In order to achieve a LCS by reducing CO2 emissions, four actions were recommended in the report: (1) introducing clean energy (2) low carbon lifestyle (3) low carbon electricity (4) low carbon fuels in industry (5) sustainable transport. CCS comes under Action (3) of low carbon electricity.
