That will likely require co‐ordination among government agencies or bundled responsibilities within only a few direct authorities to develop and implement relevant laws to guide development of approvals processes, administration and long‐term oversight of projects. The role of state‐owned enterprises in developing voluntary industry guidelines to address developing low‐carbon policies will be important in both power generation and the whole energy sector. It will be equally important that relevant industries are engaged in steps to develop CCS with clear objectives and safety considerations, following directives from policy makers. As in other countries, existing guidelines and regulations for oil and gas exploration, coal mines, pipeline regulations and other legislation may be adapted or provide guidance on CCS‐related legislation, along with climate specific policies that factor CCS into a suite of climate‐change mitigation technologies. The consideration and incorporation of CCS into scenario modeling, scenario analysis and the framing of key policy questions will also be important to clarify the role CCS may play in China, given specific technology pathways, emissions abatement requirements and deployment time frames. The Energy & Environment Policy Research Institute of the Chinese Academy of Sciences, among other research institutes is currently modeling future scenarios for energy and climate, and may include costs and benefits of CCS in its analysis. Key institutions, sectors and players Several key state‐owned companies, research institutions, non‐government organisations and government institutions are involved with CCS RD&D in China (Table 2). Furthermore, the government is leveraging its CCS investments with a broad array of international co‐operative activities on CCS within bilateral and multilateral frameworks. It has encouraged Chinese companies to forge international partnerships and become global leaders in CCS technology and research. Table 2 provides an overview of several key players involved in CCS development in China that are referenced throughout this paper, further descriptions including international government initiatives and demonstration project participants are detailed in the financing and projects sections of this paper. Given the pace of project developments, announcements and activities on CCS, this table is not intended to be exhaustive, but to identify the range of players and examples of work in this area.
