Getting ready for carbon capture and storage through a 'CCS (Carbon Capture and Storage) Ready Hub': A case study of Shenzhen city in Guangdong province, China
Output from DECC and China Ministry of Science and Technology CAPPCCO project (see https://www.gov.uk/government/publications/chinese-advanced-power-plant-carbon-capture-options-cappcco-final-summary-report-2012). Presents a new tool combining spatial techno-economic CCS systems models with Li and Liang’s local knowledge to devise novel approaches to Chinese CCS deployment. Contributed to CAPPCCO’s identification of how CCS can be rolled out in China to support rapid development but avoid long-term carbon lock-in, thereby informing DECC Science and Innovation Strategy (e.g. https://www.gov.uk/government/uploads/system/uploads/attachment_data/file/48335/5107-decc-science-innovation-strategy-2012.pdf, p17). Initiated a new group theme modelling economically efficient technology-driven emissions reduction approaches (entraining 3 funded PhDs) that contributed to a recent high profile commissioned report’s methodology (see: http://www3.imperial.ac.uk/climatechange/publications/collaborative/halving-global-co2-by-2050 & http://www.thetimes.co.uk/tto/environment/article3871902.ece)
