Presentation Transcript

  1. CCS and Public Engagement – The Netherlands Dr. Martha Roggenkamp Professor of Energy Law Groningen Centre of Energy Law, University of Groningen, NL M.M.Roggenkamp@rug.nl www.gcel.nl

  2. Groningen Centre of Energy Law: • Established in 2006 • Research projects: - CCS research:1 PhD + part time post doc - Offshore energy: 2 PhD + 1 post doc - Market liberalisation/new energy: 2 PhD - Emissions trading: 3 PhD and 2 ass.prof

  3. Gas Reservoirs – Potential Storage

  4. Public Engagement – The Netherlands • CCS = 3 separate activities/no integrated approach. Focus is on storage • Onshore storage involve many permits • Such permit procedures can take a long time (subsequent complaint/appeal procedures) • In 2009 National Coordinating Law/Crisis and Repair Act: Government can streamline/limit the number of procedures • Coordinating Law applies if a project is of national interest (gives Minister descritionary powers/overruling local governments)

  5. CCS in the Netherlands: • Initially great interest – the Netherlands as CO2 hub of Northern Europe • Potentially many (soon to be) depleted gas fields • Focus on Rotterdam (Barendrecht) and Groningen (Eemshaven) – demonstration projects envisaged • Storage licence under the Mining Act • CO2 storage projects are of national interest (Minister may overrule local governments) and part of Crises and Repair Act (no appeals)

  6. Result: • Minister has the final decision making power. The current Minister/government has decided that there will be no CO2 storage onshore • CO2 storage projects will be offshore: ROAD and Green Hydrogen • These projects involve capture in Rotterdam area and storage in a depleted/producing field in Dutch EEZ (P18)and Danish EEZ (Maersk). Both involve also EHR • Transport via a CO2 hub on the “Maasvlakte” via pipeline (P18) or ship

  7. Some concluding comments: • CO2 capture and transport is treated different, depending on its ultimate use: permanent storage and/or commercial use • The discussion on CO2 storage now also seem to have a negative effect other projects like gas storage
