Fridahl, Mathias; Lehtveer, Mariliis (2018): Bioenergy with carbon capture and storage (BECCS). Global potential, investment preferences, and deployment barriers. In Energy Research [&] Social Science 42, pp.[nbsp]155–165. DOI: 10.1016/j.erss.2018.03.019.

„Using questionnaire data from UN climate change conferences, this paper explores the influence of expertise, actor type, and origin on respondents’ a) preferences for investing in BECCS, b) views of the role of BECCS as a mitigation technology, globally and domestically, and c) assessment of possible domestic barriers to BECCS deployment. Non-parametric statistical analysis reveals the low priority assigned to investments in BECCS, the anticipated high political and social constraints on deployment, and a gap between its low perceived domestic potential to contribute to mitigation and a slightly higher perceived global potential.“
