Stephen Tindale and Simon Tilford argue that more public money is needed for the construction of demonstration projects, while regulation and strong market signals will be required to ensure mass deployment of the technology.]]> http://climateanswers.info/2010/03/ccs-what-the-eu-needs-to-do-part-1/feed/ 0 http://climateanswers.info/2010/03/ccs-what-the-eu-needs-to-do-part-2/ http://climateanswers.info/2010/03/ccs-what-the-eu-needs-to-do-part-2/#comments Mon, 01 Mar 2010 13:15:21 +0000 Stephen Tindale with Simon Tilford http://climateanswers.info/?p=3220 Coal will be the biggest single source of electricity for decades to come.
