Digimon D3.2 Report on the outcomes of the Societal Embeddedness Level Assessment for CCS in four countries: Norway, the Netherlands, Greece and
Germany

book
This document (DigiMon deliverable D3.2) describes the assessment of societal embeddedness level (SEL) of CCS in Norway, the Netherlands, Greece and Germany. It also provides recommendations for improving the societal embeddedness of CCS technology per country.
Based on a contextualization of CCS for each country the SEL was evaluated using the methodology as described in the DigiMon deliverable D3.1 “Guideline Societal Embeddedness Assessment”1. An overview of the SEL methodology is presented schematically in Figure 1. The SEL was assessed for each one of its dimensions, which are (1) the impact on the natural and social environment, (2) stakeholders’ involvement, (3) legal and regulatory framework and (4) market and financial resources, starting from the average TRL level for CCS development at national level. For each dimension the so-called societal embeddedness level was identified, varying from SEL 1 to SEL 4 (see Figure 2). Based on the SEL values per dimension an overall SEL value was identified, as described in DigiMon deliverable D3.11. The assessment was performed by combining the results of desk research based on literature review and insights from interviews with CCS experts.
