Calculate Limits on Industry CCS Capacities

Description

Calculate Limits on Industry CCS Capacities

Usage

calcIndustry_CCS_limits(
  annual_growth_factor = 1.2,
  stage_weight = c(Operational = 1, `In construction` = 1, `Advanced development` = 0.5,
    `Early development` = 0.2),
  facility_subsector = c(Cement = "cement", Chemical = "chemicals",
    `Hydrogen / Ammonia / Fertiliser` = "chemicals", Ethan = "chemicals",
    `Iron and Steel Production` = "steel"),
  region_mapping = NULL
)

Arguments

annual_growth_factor

Annual growth factor of CCS capacity limits, defaults to 1.2 (20 % annually).

stage_weight

A named vector of weight factors for different lifecycle stages. See Details.

facility_subsector

A named vector mapping the "Facility Industry" of CCS projects to REMIND industry subsectors. See Details.

region_mapping

A data frame with columns iso3c and region detailing the regional resolution on which data should be extrapolated. If NULL (the default), extrapolation is done at the country level.

Details

The limits on industry CCS capacities are calculated from data of the Global Status of CCS 2023 report (through readGlobalCCSinstitute(). CCS projects are

  • filtered for valid (i.e. not "Under Evaluation") data for "Operation date" and "CO~2~ capture capacity"

  • assigned to REMIND industry subsectors according to facility_subsector, which defaults to

    Facility Industry subsector
    Cement cement
    Chemical chemicals
    Hydrogen / Ammonia / Fertiliser chemicals
    Ethan chemicals
    Iron and Steel Production steel
  • weighted by lifecycle stage according to stage_weight, which defaults to

    Lifecycle stage weight
    Operational 100 %
    In construction 100 %
    Advanced development 50 %
    Early development 20 %

The resulting project capacities constitute the limits on industry subsector CCS capacity for 2030. The limit on CCS capacities for regions (or countries if region_mapping is NULL) is set to a value of total 2030 subsector CCS capacity, times the regions share in 2030 subsector activity (e.g. cement production)

  • in 2035 if the region as some CCS capacity in 2030 in a different industry subsector, or

  • in 2040 if the region has no industry CCS capacity in 2030 at all.

CCS capacities are increase by the annual growth factor (default: 20 %/p.a.).

Value

A list with a magpie object x, weight, unit, description, and min.
