The growing interest in carbon capture and storage (CCS) projects to address atmospheric emissions has drawn attention to the crucial role of pipelines in transporting carbon dioxide (CO2) to sequestration sites, highlighting concerns over safety issues. CCS involves the capture of CO2 from the emissions of industrial processes before they are released into the atmosphere for storage in subsurface geological formations.

As carbon pricing gains traction as a policy tool to combat climate change and achieve net-zero emissions, regulatory attention on U.S. carbon markets has been on the rise. Recent developments in state-level emissions trading programs have yielded mixed results, with Washington's latest allowance auction seeing a significant price drop, while California, Quebec, and the Regional Greenhouse Gas Initiative (RGGI) cleared at record high prices.

The Biden administration has made significant strides in climate change action, particularly through the enactment of the Inflation Reduction Act of 2022 (IRA), which represents the single largest investment in climate and energy in the U.S. Actions to further the administration’s climate agenda include proposals to limit emissions from power plants and vehicles, finalizing methane emission rules, and advancing environmental justice.
The growing interest in carbon capture and sequestration (CCS) projects driven by supportive policies and tax incentives has prompted state efforts to streamline permitting requirements, including securing primacy to regulate Class VI injection wells to sequester carbon dioxide. CCS involves the capture of carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions from power plants or industrial processes before they are released into the atmosphere for storage in subsurface geological formations.
Discussions around carbon markets reflect the growing emphasis on collaborative efforts to advance climate solutions. Despite gaining prominence as an efficient market-based solution to reduce emissions, carbon trading initiatives face obstacles due to concerns of…Read the full report …...
