TL;DR: In this article, the authors review the current state-of-the-art of CO2 capture, transport, utilisation and storage from a multi-scale perspective, moving from the global to molecular scales.

TL;DR: This paper makes three key observations from the case analysis: that there has been substantial expense and effort effectively wasted through duplicate effects of different policy mechanisms by both federal and state governments, and as various mechanisms enable variable renewable energy generation to increase, the market becomes distorted.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors demonstrate how Carbon Capture and Storage (CCS) on fossil-fuel plants can play an important role to play in a portfolio of generation technologies, and demonstrate that the characteristics of the NEM plays a significant role in determining the value of an additional asset placed on the system.

TL;DR: MEGS as discussed by the authors is an electricity system scenario tool designed to explore options to approach the optimal mix for a particular decarbonisation target, which is critical for electricity consumers and taxpayers, who together need to cover the costs of the entire electricity system.

TL;DR: In this article , the authors examined the frequency and nature of low renewable periods and examined strategies for their mitigation so that unserved energy standards are not breached, and found that the winter period, May to August, is the time where the NEM is at greatest risk of loss of load.
