Lap et al. (2023): BECCS as climate mitigation option in a Brazilian low carbon energy system: Estimating potential and effect of gigatonne scale CO2 storage

Tjerk Lap, René Benders, Floor van der Hilst, André Faaij IN: International Journal of Greenhouse Gas Control, 128, 103945, https://doi.org/10.1016/j.ijggc.2023.103945

In this study an energy system model is used to assess the BECCS decarbonization potential in Brazil, considering uncertainty in low-carbon biomass resources, and storage potential, injection rates and costs of CO2 storage, assessed in eight scenarios. A spatial explicit analysis is done to make improved estimates on the storage potential, injection rates, and costs for CO2 storage in the Rio Bonito saline aquifer of the Paraná basin.
