CCS in Europe: Frontrunner or Follower?

3. Ambition vs. Reality (1)
• EU ambition (2010): 12 CCS demo’s operational by 2020
• All technologies for Capture and Storage should be
demonstrated
• Projects should include: power generation and industrial
• Two support programmes have been initiated by the EU:
o European Energy Programme for Recovery (EEPR, 2009)
- € 1 bln for 6 projects
o New Entrants Reserve 300 (NER 300)
300 mln EUA’s mounting up to
..... € 9 bln or ......€ 2.4 bln?
for another 6 projects

4. Ambition vs. Reality (2)
EEPR has awarded 6 projects in a strong portfolio
Bełchatów (Poland)
Don Valley (UK) Post combustion
Pre combustion Onshore
Offshore Saline aquifers
Gas reservoir
Jänschwalde (Germany)
(Rotterdam) Oxy fuel/post combustion
Post combustion Onshore
Offshore
Gas reservoir
Compostilla (Spain) Porto Tolle (Italy)
Oxfuel + CFB Post combustion
Onshore Offshore
Saline aquifers Saline aquifers Page 4
5. Ambition vs. Reality (3)
•Roundtable
Individual projects face multiple barriers:
o Implementation of EU CCS Directive into national legislation
o Appraisal of storage sites
o Obtaining necessary permits for capture, transport and storage
o Absence public acceptance and most of all: a business case
• Barriers have severely delayed most of EEPR projects
…or worse…
• EU Round Table (21 September 2012):
o Jänschwalde cancelled
o Porto Tolle (It), Compostilla (Spain), Belchatów (Poland)
seriously delayed (beyond planning allowed by EEPR)
o Don Valley (UK) delayed, but hopeful
o ROAD (NL) slightly delayed, but ready for FID provided for
remaining financial gap

6. Ambition vs. Reality (4)
NER 300 (phase 1) top 3 list:
• Don Valley (UK)
• Belchatów (Poland)
• Green Hydrogen (NL)
Absence of economic driver is main problem:
• Financial and economic crisis
• Malfunctioning EU ETS
o EUA price decreased from ~€ 30 (2009) to ~€ 7 (2012)
o additional financial gap: € 25 mln/operational year for EEPR
projects
o EOR not emerging in Europe yet
o NER 300 value has almost evaporated Page 6
7. Ambition vs. Reality (5)
• EU Energy Roadmap 2050 still indicates that CCS has to play a
crucial role in Europe’s energy supply in next decades
• Demonstration projects running by 2020 are a must, however
ambition has been tempered to 3 projects
• EU ETS must/will be reshaped, which is good for long term
perspective, but not short term solution for EU demo’s
• Available public funding has to be reallocated, a real
European approach is necessary (bi-lateral or even
multilateral co-operation between member states) and
investors have to cluster (participate in other projects)
How to select / how to cluster projects?
Formalities (granting schemes) have to be overcome:
o Technology compatibility
o Availability of permits
o Public acceptance
o Transport & storage are local/national,
however CO2-hub concept is transnational Page 7

•Roundtable is not a one shot

opportunity, but stepping
stone for development of
CO2 network in port of
Rotterdam
• ROAD is ideal platform to
develop CO2 network aligned
with strategic objectives of
port of Rotterdam and
combines interest of many
national and international
stakeholders

9. Worldwide Knowledge Sharing
• Is it a problem that reality lags behind our ambition (and
Europe not being a frontrunner)?
• Key word: “worldwide knowledge sharing”
• Juho Lipponen, IEA (EU Round Table, 21 September 2012):
“Europe has to be learning with other parts of the world.
Then 10-12 projects worldwide can be sufficient”

11. What is CCS Project Network?
Established in 2009 to generate early benefit from a coordinated
European action on CCS-demonstration projects
Current members: five remaining projects + Sleipner (No)
Projects fulfilling qualification criteria can join
Objectives
Enabling knowledge-sharing amongst projects
Leverage experience of projects in order to gain public
confidence about CCS
Promote CCS, EU leadership and cooperation potential to third
parties/countries

12. Network Update – Change of Secretariat
New secretariat for Network effective as of 21 March 2012
Global CCS Institute is a not-for-profit independent entity.
Its global
members include 360 government, industry, academia bodies. It
focuses on knowledge sharing and assisting projects
IFPEN is a public-sector research, industrial innovation and training
centre active in fields of energy, transport and environment
TNO applies scientific knowledge with aim of strengthening
innovative power of industry and government
SINTEF is one of largest independent European research institutes,
focusing on power generation and energy conversion technologies,
distribution and end-use
| | | | 12
13. What Will We Do?
A deeper and more focused approach to knowledge sharing:
Collecting data and sharing them in-line with the Protocol
Reviewing the current system for data collection and sharing
Greater and clearer dissemination of findings
More focused topics that continue to be developed in 2012:
Public Engagement
Regulatory Development
Storage (monitoring, characterization)
Development of “new” tools such as webinars and methods for fast-
bilateral exchange
Network with networks

16. Conclusions
•Roundtable
Network is in good shape, but is heavily dependent on
success of EU CCS demonstration projects
• Number of projects in Network may be smaller and more
divers
• Worldwide knowledge sharing will be key for development of
CCS in Europe
• Global CCS Institute is well placed to give an impulse to
globalization and intensification of knowledge sharing
• Expectations on Global CCS Institute’s role as secretariat of
Network are high
CCS in Europe: no frontrunner, no follower,
but meaningful partner Page 16
