In his capacity as CDM Working Group member, Paul Zakkour participated in the Technical Expert Meeting on Carbon Capture, Utilisation and Storage, organised by the UNFCCC in Bonn. The meeting brought together experts from around the world to exchange information on the pre-2020 potential of CCUS within the Climate Change Convention. More information about the meeting is available here.
As part of our paticipation in the GHGT-12 Conference, we presented an update to our 2010 work on the role of UN financing in supporting CCS in developing countries. The paper covers more recent developments in respect of the role of market and non-market mechanisms in supporting CCS, and also focuses on two special case applications (1) Bio-energy with CCS (BECCS) and (2) CO2 storage with enhanced oil recovery. The paper is available to download here.
