Perspective on the hydrogen economy as a pathway to reach net-zero CO<inf>2</inf> emissions in Europe. Energy & Environmental Science. ISSN 1754-5692. 15(3), s. 1034–1077. doi: 10.1039/D1EE02118D.

  The envisioned role of hydrogen in the energy transition – or the concept of hydrogen economy – has varied through the years. While in the past hydrogen was mainly considered a clean fuel for cars and/or for electricity production, the current renewed interest stems from the versatility of hydrogen and the multiple roles that it can take in the transition to CO2 neutrality, where the common denominator is the capability of tackling emissions from distributed applications and complex industrial processes. However, the hydrogen economy will not materialise without strong political support and robust infrastructure design. This is because hydrogen deployment needs to tackle multiple barriers at once, including technology development for hydrogen production and conversion, infrastructure co-creation, policy and market design and business model development. In light of these challenges, we have brought together a group of hydrogen researchers that span the multiple disciplines involved to give a perspective on the status of the hydrogen economy, and on what is needed to deploy the hydrogen economy as part of the drive towards net-zero-CO2 societies. We do this by analysing (i) hydrogen end-use technologies and applications, (ii) hydrogen production methods, (iii) hydrogen transport and storage networks, (iv) legal and regulatory aspects, and (v) business models. For each of these, we provide key take home messages ranging from the current status to the outlook and needs for further research. Overall, we provide the reader with a thorough understanding of the elements in the hydrogen economy, state of play and gaps to be filled.

  The Regulation of Decommissioning, Abandonment and Reuse Initiatives in the Oil and Gas Industry is an expansive book which divulges a comprehensive description and critique of the key issues that must be addressed by nations, and of the current international, regional, and national law and policy in this field. With thousands of offshore oil and gas platforms in place across the globe, the decommissioning of these ageing installations is becoming of increasing concern to regulators, industry and other stakeholders in the marine environment. This book elucidates current initiatives aimed at maximising reuse and repurposing opportunities, such as wind power, hydrogen, carbon capture, and storage by analysing the relevant law and practices of selected oil- and gas-producing nations. Capitalising on the good decommissioning practices adopted by such distinguished jurisdictions as the United States, the United Kingdom, and Norway, the book delves deep into such key complex and topical issues as the following: decommissioning provisions in operating agreements; agreements on decommissioning security; dispute risks; the challenge of residual liability; tax treatment of decommissioning; environmental, health, and safety; and creating reuse incentives and enabling energy system integration.

  Looking at the practical case of the Guidelines on State aid for environmental protection and energy (EEAG) (2014-2020) and implementation of them, this article intends to re-open the debate on the legal status of soft law instruments in EU State aid policy. It analyses the recent case law of the court of Justice of the European Union and the manner the latter distinguishes between the legal force and the legal effects of the State aid guidelines, not only on the Commission, but also on third parties like Member States. The article puts in perspective the careful approach of the Court in not recognising the possible indirect effects of the guidelines on Member States or individuals with the procedural and structural changes in the adoption of the guidelines. With the implementation of the State Aid Modernisation, a circular process in three steps has been established between the adoption of the General Block Exemption Regulation (GBER), the new State aid guidelines and the proposals for new secondary legislation. In this process, the guidelines assume the function of a bridge, building on the binding principles enshrined in the GBER and preparing the revision of sectoral EU directives and regulations. With the upcoming revision of the GBER and the EEAG which is now scheduled for adoption in 2021, the same dynamic will most probably apply. The revision of the GBER and the EEAG will need to reflect the content of the newly adopted Clean Energy Package for All Europeans, but will also play a crucial role in preparing the grounds for amending relevant secondary legislation in line with the Commission’s European Green Deal Strategy.

  The Law of the Seabed reviews the most pressing legal questions raised by the use and protection of natural resources on and underneath the world’s seabeds. While barely accessible, the seabed plays a major role in the Earth’s ecological balance. It is both a medium and a resource, and is central to the blue economy. New uses and new knowledge about seabed ecosystems, and the risks of disputes due to competing interests, urge reflection on which regulatory approaches to pursue. The regulation of ocean activities is essentially sector-based, and the book puts in parallel the international and national regimes for seabed mining, oil and gas, energy generation, bottom fisheries, marine genetic resources, carbon sequestration and maritime security operations, both within and beyond the national jurisdiction. The book contains seven parts respectively addressing the definition of the seabed from a multidisciplinary perspective, the principles of jurisdiction delimitation under the United Nations Convention on the Law of the Sea (UNCLOS), the regimes for use of non-living, living and marine biodiversity resources, the role of state and non-state actors, the laying and removal of installations, the principles for sustainable and equitable use (common heritage of mankind, precaution, benefit sharing), and management tools to ensure coexistence between activities as well as the protection of the marine environment.

  The number of severe and sometimes catastrophic disruptive events has been rapidly increasing. Extreme weather events including floods, wildfires, hurricanes, and other natural disasters have become both more frequent and more severe, whilst events such as the COVID-19 pandemic represent a global threat to public health with huge economic effects that recovery packages tried to address. These disruptive events, alone and in combination, have dramatic consequences on nature, human life, and the economy, calling for urgent action to mitigate their causes and adapt to their impacts. Prof. Banet’s talk is based on a new book for which she is lead co-editor: Resilience in Energy Infrastructure and Natural Resources Law.

  Med enigheten i EU om fornybardirektiv inklusive et skjerpet fornybarmål og krav til nasjonale planer og tiltak fra medlemslandene som bakteppe, har vi bedt Catherine Banet komme med noen første vurderinger av hva dette kan ha å si for Norge i praksis, samt EØS-relevansen.

  Frankrike har vært kjernekraftlandet, litt i skyggen av Storbritannia og Tyskland i klima- og energipolitikken i Europa. Landet får fortsatt 75 prosent av sin energiforsyning fra kjernekraft. Men dette skal ned til 50 prosent i løpet av 2020-årene, og vind og sol skal trappes opp for å supplere vannkraft (som er viktigst innen fornybar energi så langt). Nå har Brexit og interne politiske konflikter i Tyskland svekket disse to tungvekternes rolle i EUs klimapolitikk. Emmanuel Macron som ble president i mai 2017 og hans regjering har lansert flere initiativer, både når det gjelder videre styrking av fornybarpolitikken og klimakvotesystemet. Hva er så status for politikken på disse områdene? Hva er sentrale bakgrunnsfaktorer? Hvor går Frankrike videre i denne sammenhengen? Disse spørsmålene diskuterer vi i denne artikkelen.

  The report is part of a research project focused on both wholesale and retail European energy markets, with the aim to formulate policy recommendations for the future of market design. The paper aims to address and provide some initial answers to the below research questions: - How well have European retail electricity markets been coping with the current energy crisis? How have governments responded to increasing prices? - What short-term measures can governments take to soften the impact of high energy prices? - What long-term measures can governments take to protect consumers from high energy prices? - What should be the role of the EU vs. the Member States? - What legal constraints are imposed by EU directives and regulations? - Do we need to regulate the risk exposure of suppliers? What are the options for doing this? The authors provide a brief discussion on energy retailing, before presenting four country experiences: France, Norway, the Netherlands and Great Britain. Based on these experiences, the paper subsequently attempts to draw lessons and identify challenges and opportunities for retail markets going forward.

Negative emissions and carbon dioxide removal (CDR) including ocean scenarios: Drivers, uncertainties, and deployment potential. Norges teknisk-naturvitenskapelige universitet. Vis sammendrag

  Negative emissions and Carbon Dioxide Removal (CDR) at scale is required to offset hard to reduce emission streams and remove historic emissions from the atmosphere. CDR relies on and intervenes with the basics of earth systems such as the ocean, land, soil, and the atmosphere. This implies that CDR will need to be developed on terms that are acceptable to the natural systems which our human systems rely on. This report offers an introduction to three CDR solutions: seaweed farming, BECCS and direct air capture (DAC).

  This Recommendation Paper aims to contribute to the discussion of how to amend the Renewable Energy Directive (EU) 2018/2011 (REDII) to ensure it is ‘fit-for-purpose’ under the European Union’s (EU) new 2030 emissions reduction target, the 2050 climate-neutrality objective and the expected increase in the renewable energy target. As REDII was only recently adopted, a targeted revision, that is limited-in-scope, is required. Such a short-term revision is to be distinguished from a more thorough recast that will be needed over the longer-term. The Recommendation Paper explores three specific areas, providing recommendations to improve: (i) renewable energy support schemes and tendering procedures; (ii) enhanced coordination of energy system planning; and (iii) rules for the tracking and valorisation of renewable energy generation attributes.
