2. Why BECCS?
Too much CO 2 in the atmosphere CO 2 How do we put it back? Crucial for ambitious climate scenarios (350, 400 ppm)?

3. Case: BECCS in Sweden
-COSTS- Pulp and paper: Similar cost structure as for Energy Cost of BECCS in Sweden BECCS systems in Sweden cost 70-90/ton stored CO 2 Black liquor gasification and ethanol production early opportunities 66% Pulp and Paper sector: Average weights of individual components of total CCS cost BIG emission points 27% 7% Transportation Storage Capture Sources: Zantioti et al, Opportunities and Societal Costs of Introducing the BECCS Technology in Sweden, CEMS at Stockholm School of Economics, 2009; m.fl. 16
