Climate Change and Clean Energy Fundamentals and Signposts
With so many interconnected policy, market, and technology developments, it is challenging to identify and track the most critical fundamentals and signposts in the rapidly changing climate change and clean energy (CCCE) landscape. This research is intended to develop a structured approach for identifying and assessing CCCE fundamentals and signposts for Europe and North America on an ongoing basis. To be delivered as a Power Point briefing, this analysis will synthesize key Climate Change and Clean Energy Forum (CCEF) findings and insights to help CCEF members formulate timely, successful strategies in the face of rapid changes and uncertainty.

The IHS Green Spread: Europe and North America
Cost components of conventional and renewable energy have been volatile. Determining appropriate cost estimates and the proper cost comparison with conventional sources of power can be challenging. IHS CERA has delivered the IHS CERA Green Spread—North America, a tool that tracks and benchmarks the full-cost position of wind and solar relative to a combined-cycle gas turbine. In addition to updating the historical view for North America, we will also focus on showing historical results for Europe. The analysis will help clients understand where to invest and the potential scale of renewables build by estimating which types of projects have the least cost as well as the total cost premium of adding an entire portfolio of renewables.
12:00 - 13:30
Lunch
13:30 - 14:30
Carbon Decision Frameworks
Significant uncertainty regarding the timing, availability, and cost of various carbon abatement options creates confusion both in formulating individual company strategy and for policy analysis. IHS CERA’s Carbon Decisions Framework seeks to bring clarity to this challenging landscape by providing objective analysis to compare abatement potential and costs across sectors over time.
14:30 - 15:00
Break
15:00 - 16:00
Capturing Carbon and Capturing Value: Rewards and Risks along the CCS Value Chain
The widespread deployment of carbon capture and storage (CCS) depends upon attracting the appropriate competencies and levels of investment along the CCS value chain. For this research, we will explore the opportunities and risks along the different stages of the value chain. Key questions include: Will proposed liability regimes be adequate to attract investment in storage? Will enhanced oil recovery operators pay or get paid for carbon? Are the reported costs of transport and storage consistent with the risk-adjusted returns on investment?
