Abstract:
There is a broad spectrum of expertise and skills required to develop and operate a CCS site. Two aspects that seem to be far removed from geoscience and engineering are these: social licence and regulation. However, both aspects are critical to deployment of CCS projects not only in Australia, but globally.This presentation looks at some of the FAQs and expectations of different parts of the industry, government and communities on the impacts and risks for CCS, including the value of being open and transparent about lessons learned when things don’t quite go to plan. In discussing regulation, we talk about the status of regulations around Australia, the types of regulations that impinge on CCS and how this is part of the challenge to be first-of-a-kind regionally.
