Topic:
“The Importance of Carbon Intensity to Meet Decarbonization Goals and Impact on Capital Projects”
In this presentation we will discuss the importance of carbon intensity (CI) and industry and government regulatory and auditing requirements, both for the regulated and voluntary carbon markets. An introduction on the direction and drivers of the carbon market; regulations, IRA (Inflation Reduction Act) which will give rise to many capital projects like CCUS, H2, will be provided. The importance of LCA’s and CI score on carbon/tax credits, which impact investors and the viability of capital projects will be discussed. We will describe the evolution of the energy industry’s path towards a low to net zero carbon society, with focus on the CI score’s role in the transportation fuels market. We will also discuss recent technical innovations to support the continuous drive towards lower carbon intensity (CI) products.
