Attention will be paid in particular to energy efficiency, renewable energy, the transport sector (including aviation and maritime transport), and carbon capture and storage.” European Commission: Environment Directorate General Slide: 6 ECCP WG III (CCS): objective The general objective of the Working Group is to explore geological carbon capture and storage as a mitigation option by: reviewing the potential, economics and risks of CCS; identifying regulatory needs and barriers and exploring the elements of an enabling regulatory framework for the development of environmentally sound CCS; identifying other barriers that could impede the development of environmentally sound policies to advance CCS, and policies to enable the development of environmentally sound CCS.

All EU-15 Member States provided projections assuming existing domestic policies and measures. Several countries provided projections with additional domestic policies and measures. For following Member States the Environment General Slide: 12 additional effects of the use of Kyoto mechanisms is included: Austria,European Belgium, Commission: Denmark, Finland, Ireland,Directorate Italy, Luxembourg, the Netherlands and Spain),. For EU-15 the effect of use of Kyoto mechanisms is calculated based on information from these nine countries. Projections for Poland cover only CO2 and N2O and include LULUCF. Projections for Spain cover only CO2. Projections for Cyprus and Malta are not available. Source: EEA, 2005
