For comprehensive analysis of the regulation, consenting and incentivisation of the net zero energy transition under the laws of England and Wales, see also: Collinson and Hockman on Energy Law: Regulating, Consenting and Incentivising the Energy Transition. That textbook offers an in-depth exploration of matters addressed in this Practice Note. What is carbon capture, usage and storage (CCUS)? The term CCUS is sometimes described as ‘carbon capture and storage’ (CCS); broadly, CCS represents a narrower subset within the same sector. CCS describes a range of processes that capture and store CO 2 emissions from industrial activities...

Collinson and Hockman on Energy Law: Regulating, Consenting and Incentivising the Energy Transition For an in-depth examination of regulation, consenting and incentivisation of the net zero energy transition under the laws of England and Wales, see also the above work. That textbook offers detailed analysis of matters addressed in this Practice Note. This Practice Note sets out an overview of the principal revenue support mechanisms being developed by the UK government for low carbon hydrogen schemes in the UK, together with the pathways by which such funding is granted and the associated processes through which awards are made. It concentrates on the business model for qualifying projects falling within hydrogen production, and outlines the proposed business models for hydrogen transport, hydrogen storage and hydrogen to power (H2P) generation. It also covers the Low Carbon Hydrogen Standard (LCHS), the Low Carbon Hydrogen Certification Scheme (LCHCS), the Net Zero Hydrogen Fund (NZHF) and the results and outcomes of UK Hydrogen Allocation Rounds (HARs) held to date so far...
