Carbon Dioxide Removal 2018 PCR

NET-RAPIDO: Negative emission technologies: readiness assessment, policy instrument design, options for governance and dialogue

Delivered for Swedish Energy Agency (SEA).

The assignment

This research project addresses the tension between ambitious global temperature targets under the Paris Agreement and the possible reliance on untested, yet potentially necessary negative emission technologies (NETs) in international climate policy. For this, the project provides insights on technology readiness, and policy options to ensuring environmental integrity as well as sustainable development. In addition, it addresses questions of economic feasibility and proposes approaches to incentivizing private sector investments. The research is accompanied by a continuous stakeholder and public engagement process, involving researchers, NGOs, policy-makers and industry.
