Bio energy with CCS (BECCS): Large potential for BioSNG at low CO2 avoidance cost

The production of biomass-based Substitute Natural Gas (BioSNG) with CO2 Capture and Storage (CCS) offers the opportunity for net CO2 uptake from the atmosphere. For large-scale BioSNG production plants the CO2 avoidance cost amount 62 €/ton CO2, given the recognition of these negative emissions in...

Summary:The production of biomass-based Substitute Natural Gas (BioSNG) with CO2 Capture and Storage (CCS) offers the opportunity for net CO2 uptake from the atmosphere. For large-scale BioSNG production plants the CO2 avoidance cost amount 62 €/ton CO2, given the recognition of these negative emissions in emission trading. BECCS technologies like BioSNG production are indispensable in pursuit of low atmospheric CO2 concentration stabilisation scenarios.
