Research Questions
• What might be the role of carbon management technologies in facilitating a transition in Saudi Arabia’s energy economy towards sustainability?
• What might be the transition paths in implementing carbon management technologies onto Saudi Arabia’s energy sector and industries over time?
• How might Saudi Arabia’s energy policies spur innovation in carbon management technologies?

Technology: Carbon Capture and Sequestration (CCS)CCS
• Definition:
• CCS is a process consisting of the separation of CO2 from industrial and energy-related sources, transport to a storage location and long-term isolation from the atmosphere.
• The technology of CCS constitutes of three stages: Carbon CaptureCarbon TransportCarbon Sequestration/Storage
• Capture of CO2 can be applied to large point sources. The CO2 would then be compressed and transported for storage in geological formations, in the ocean, in mineral carbonates , or for use in industrial processes.
IPCC, 2005

Technology: Carbon Capture and Sequestration (CCS)Carbon Sequestration - Geological
• Prospective areas in sedimentary basins where suitable saline formations, oil or gas fields, or coal beds may be found.

Technology:Carbon Capture and Sequestration (CCS)CCS System
•The net reduction of emissions to the atmosphere through CCS depends on the fraction of CO2 captured, the increased CO2 production resulting from loss in overall efficiency of power plants or industrial processes due to the additional energy required for capture, transport and storage, any leakage from transport and the fraction of CO2 retained in storage over the long term.
