Advancing Carbon Capture and Storage: Implementing Decision 10/CMP.7 in CDM Processes

This document outlines the implementation of Decision 10/CMP.7 regarding Carbon Capture and Storage (CCS) within the Clean Development Mechanism (CDM). Focused on enhancing methodologies and guidelines, it supports the international effort to reduce greenhouse gas emissions from fossil fuels. The document emphasizes the need for updated standards, procedures, and guidance based on best practices to ensure effective project development. Through expert reviews and collaborative research, it aims to facilitate the integration of CCS technologies in climate action strategies.

  1. Implementing Decision 10/CMP.7CCS in the CDM Tim DixonIEA Greenhouse Gas R & D Programme UNFCCC 1st SDM Workshop 25 March

  2. IEA Greenhouse Gas R&D Programme • A collaborative international research programme founded in 1991 • Aim: To provide information on the role that technology can play in reducing greenhouse gas emissions from use of fossil fuels. • Focus is on Carbon Dioxide Capture and Storage (CCS) • Producing information that is: • Objective, trustworthy, independent • Policy relevant but NOT policy prescriptive • Reviewed by external Expert Reviewers • Activities: Studies and reports (>250); International Research Networks : Wells, Risk, Monitoring, Modelling, Oxy, Capture, Social Research, Solid Looping; Communications (GHGT conferences, IJGGC, etc); facilitating and focussing R&D and demonstration activities eg Weyburn; Summer School; peer reviews.

  3. 10/CMP.7 Implementation Requirements EB: • Enable submission of methodologies and PDDs • Review CDM documents (Standards, Procedures, Guidelines, Forms) for changes to include requirements of CCS M&Ps • Enact changes if required and issue revised documents DOE, DNA, EB: • Enable consideration and processing of such applications • Including DOE, EB and DNA competencies and capabilities

  4. Review of Documents.... For example: • Standards: Project Standard – needs updating Validation and Verification Standard – needs updating Baseline and Monitoring Methodology – Project Developer • Procedures: • Guidelines: • Annex, C.4(h) – DOE criteria - needed • Annex, C.4(b-g). Whether descriptions in 10/CMP.7 are sufficient to guide project developers to provide right information and level of detail for DOEs and DNAs? Or is further guidance required? • Site-specific nature of storage – avoid being too prescriptive, eg monitoring very site-specific • Draw upon existing best practice • Forms – need updating

  5. Host Country • Ability to meet Participation Requirements • Capacity building required? Or self-development? • Ability for DNA to confirm Validation requirements

  6. Existing Best Practice • Best Practice Guidelines, including: • USA NETL: Site Selection and Characterisation; Risk analysis; MVA; etc • DNV: CO2QUALSTORE, CO2PIPETRANS; CO2WELLS, etc • IEA: Model Legal Framework • IEAGHG technical reports, eg on site selection • Project-level permit and regulation decisions, eg • NRCan on QUEST project (2012) • EC on ROAD project (2012)

  7. EB CCS Working Group • Establishment of CCS Working Group • Expertise required: • CCS technical • CCS regulatory/permit decisions • CDM methodology

  8. Encourage all reviews and decisions on applications should be in relation to current best practice • Site-specific nature of storage
