Bachelor Thesis from the year 2016 in the subject Law - Public Law / Miscellaneous, grade: 1,0, Brandenburg Technical University Cottbus (Fachgebiet für Zivil- und Öffentliches Recht mit besonderen Bezügen zu Umwelt- und Europarecht), language: English, abstract: The aim of this thesis is to determine what changes need to be made for Carbon Capture and Storage to be used to reach the goals of the new Agreement under the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change. Research focused on secondary literature, mainly scientific papers. By comparing different sources, it was possible to understand the current scenario on the topic. Other than most papers, this one analyzes various UNFCCC mechanisms with the main focus being the future of the market mechanism and the possibilities the New Market Mechanism will mean for CCS.They key finding are that although CCS could be helpful and even crucial in achieving the goals set in the Paris Agreement in 2015, the international community will need to act quickly for this to happen. It is essential for policy makers to decide on the precise nature the UNFCCC mechanisms will have in the near future for countries to have time to prepare and develop their CCS frameworks accordingly.
