Planning for an electricity sector with carbon capture and storage

摘要: Before energy companies will invest in power plants with CCS, appropriate climate policy should be place, a need for new must exist, CCS technology cost-effective, and CO2 transport infrastructure sinks available. In order to get more grip on planning, we carried out quantitative scenario study the electricity cogeneration sector Netherlands using bottom-up model generated MARKAL. We analysed strategies realise 15% 50% reduction of emissions respectively, 2020 2050 compared 1990 level. found that, if nuclear is excluded as mitigation option, can sufficiently cost-effective avoid 29 Mt per year Dutch (which half emission abatement necessary this year). identified following important factors planning. postponement strategy which reduced from 2020, abated at less than 30 €/t up 2020. A gradual 2.5% annually 2010, asks that makes expenditures possible 50 before 2015. Construction coal-fired without are preferably not built or, strategy, only limited extent. Finally, early planning required construction length around 450 km
