We want your view on options being considered to streamline the UK ETS regulatory requirements for cross-boundary CCS pipelines.

The purpose of the consultation is to understand views on options to reduce the number of UK ETS permits a CCS pipeline crossing into multiple jurisdictions will require. This could simplify the monitoring and enforcement requirements for both operators and regulators.
