and CCSA Response
The Association has responded today to the Government's 2006 Energy Review.
The response calls upon Government to implement an incentive scheme/s to encourage
take up of CCS and modify legistlation in such a way that large quantities
of CO2 can be stored for indefinite periods in geological formations under
land or the sea bed in depleted oil and gas fields; saline aquifers; or in
deep, unminable coal beds.
