International audience ; CO2 Capture and Storage (CCS) is a key climate change mitigation technology, as highlighted by IPCC, UNFCCC and IEA.Geological storage of the CO2 captured at industrial facilities such as power, cement and steel plants can massively reduce CO2 atmospheric emissions and can even generate negative emissions when combined with CO2 capture i) at biomass plants (BECCS -BioEnergy with CCS) or ii)directly from the atmosphere. Deep saline aquifers (DSA) constitute suitable widespread targets with sufficient CO2 storage capacity to enable worldwide CCS deployment. Globally there are several commercial CO2 storage projects in DSA injecting each about 1Mtpa CO2 (Norway, Canada,and soon Australia and USA). Pilots (e.g. Hontomin in Spain) and demonstration projects in other settings are currently running or planned to accelerate 'learning by doing' and push worldwide deployment.The efficient and wise use of these DSA requires robust methodologies and tools for appropriate characterization and safe CO2 storage, with no harm to the local environment including the overlying potable groundwater. Extensive research since the 1990s has enabled the development of best practices, such as the FP7 ULTimateCO2 guidance report (2016). Legislation and regulations have evolved, such as the EU Directive on the geological storage of CO2 (2009) and the upcoming ISO standards for CCS.Interestingly, CO2 storage in DSA could be combined with geothermal heat recovery, as investigated by France in the ANRCO2-DISSOLVED project, or with enhanced water recovery for producing fresh water as investigated in China and USA.The ambition of the Paris Climate Agreement to try to limit global warming to 1.5°C calls for even stronger consideration of CCS in countries' Intended Nationally Determined Contributions (INDCs) and in regions' integrated territorial energy and climate plans. The H2020 ENOS project "ENabling Onshore CO2 Storage in Europe" (2016-2020), an initiative of the CO2GeoNet European Network of Excellence, will ...

This document is the R&Dialogue French national dialogue council vision paper. The French national dialogue started in July 2014 and ended in February 2015. The vision paper is the result of the discussions between the 47 council members organized by thematic groups: i. wind power: social acceptance and difficulties; ii. oil and dependence; iii. energy transition and European construction; iv. territorial organization of the energy transition. The final and plenary meeting of the French national council was the opportunity to present the thematic common visions to all its members. This manuscript – available in French and English – is the final and agreed version of these common visions of the energy transition.

Transport and storage of CO2 are the elements in the CCS chain with the lowest cost, but they may well prove to be the elements defining the timeline for CCS development. The EU FP7 COMET project aimed to pave the road towards CCS development in the West Mediterranean (Portugal, Spain and Morocco). This paper provides the main highlights of the work conducted within COMET. The project addressed the temporal and spatial aspects of the development of the energy sector and other industrial activities in relation with CCS and its participation to CO2 emission reduction taking into account location, capacity and availability of CO2 sources and of potential CO2 storage formations. Special attention was given to a balanced optimization on transport modes, matching the sources and sinks, meeting optimal cost-benefit trade-offs, for a CCS network infrastructure as part of an international cooperation policy.
