Development of a policy framework for CO2 carbon capture and storage in the states [1]

This paper presents the background and policy issues surrounding development of a commercial market for captured carbon dioxide, and seeks to foster among policymakers a deeper understanding of : both the generation and carbon capture and storage (CCS) technologies involved, as well as their costs; the technical and regulatory barriers to deployment of those technologies, and the opportunities CCS may offer for increased employment and income. Enhanced oil recovery (EOR) offers one potential pathway to large-scale, widespread use of captured carbon dioxide, and Ohio seems particularly well-positioned to take advantage of these emerging opportunities.
