Development of a common CCS infrastructure in the UK

摘要

The future deployment of CCS transport infrastructure is likely to be via common carrier networks rather than multiplensinge point to point solutions. This article discusses some of the issues around development of common infrastructure.nThe results from a number of studies in the UK are presented, including Teesside, Humber, Scotland, and the Mersey andnDee clusters, as well as considerations for the East, South West, and South East of the UK. Discussed are the commonnissues to all developments, critical assumptions, development of cluster scenarios, screening of emitters, modelling andncosting of pipeline networks and compression, and some of the other challenges facing implementation in the UK. Innparticular, the results from a study on Teesside will be used to illustrate the issues and costs facing some emitters, thenimpact and potential of shipping, the failure to develop CCS projects and realities facing network development.
