The Decision-Making for Large-Scale Carbon Capture and Storage Projects in China and the U.S

Article Preview

Abstract:

Carbon capture and storage (CCS) can be an important technological option for managing CO2 emission in the context of addressing global climate change. Launching large-scale CCS projects is an effective way to accelerate technology development and deployment. In order to draw lessons from large-scale energy projects adoption and implementation, this study compares decision-making for large-scale CCS projects in China and the U.S. It compares the project agenda-setting and adoption process based on case study. It is argued that both countries have different advantages in launching large-scale energy projects. And leadership could be a key element for project adoption and implementation successfully. This factor should be highly considered in the technological innovation research.
