| Summary: | Developing countries will be
increasingly important players in the quest to reduce
emissions of greenhouse gases. By 2035, non-OECD countries
will account for 66 percent of primary energy demand and, in
the meantime, for 90 percent of growth in demand. Among the
steps necessary to ensure that carbon capture and storage
fulfills its potential to cut emissions are more powerful
policy incentives, including a global carbon price; testing
of new technologies in demonstration projects; and
development of storage infrastructure. |
