Report: Accounting Considerations for Capturing the GHG Consequences of BECCS
Christopher S. Galik, Justin S. Baker, Ann Bartuska, Robert C. Abt, June 2023
This paper highlights the relevant management, market, and policy attributes that influence the observed GHG balance of bioenergy with carbon capture and storage (BECCS) systems. Drawing from both the scientific literature and examples of both public and private governance approaches to account for the greenhouse gas (GHG) benefits of BECCS in practice, the paper concludes with a review of unanswered scientific and policy questions for further deliberation and analysis.
