It draws on the scholarship of renowned researchers across the fields of international energy law and policy to address CCS regulation and its impact on climate change, sustainable development, and related consequences for energy transition. In this vein, the book aims to address issues related to energy, energy justice and climate changes (including CCS technology).
Contributors discuss the main challenges and advantages concerning international energy and the forms CCS may contribute to energy security, climate change, adaptation and mitigation of GHG emissions and sustainable development. In this light, the book discusses CCS as a bridge that integrates international energy, climate change and sustainable development.
- Covers contemporary regulatory command-and-control and market incentive instruments across the local, regional and/or international spheres in-depth and in comparison
- Reviews deregulatory impacts, modern financing of CCS, liability of the involved parties, and pertinent environmental issues
- Addresses sociotechnical aspects of CCS and its specific impact on the international arena
- Discusses the interplay of carbon capture and storage, renewables and the overall energy transition, current pathways to sustainable development
Energy policymakers, regulators, and researchers interested in carbon capture and sequestration and, more broadly, in energy sustainability. Researchers interested in climate change and international energy law, in general; potential stakeholders, including native and indigenous populations; energy industry professionals, including those in the oil and gas industry and renewable sources industry (solar, wind, water); nuclear scientists; international faculty and students; law professors and their students; business professionals; business school professors and their students
