Abstract

Energy and taxation is a rich field for research and its societal relevance is high. In
this Chapter I provide an overview of the research I did in this field, made enthusiastic on this topic by Martha Roggenkamp. Next, I provide an update of the
research my colleague Jan Bouwman and I have done on the question whether tax
law will act as a barrier or as a tool for promoting CCS for a project initiated by
Martha Roggenkamp and Edwin Woerdman on the capture, transportation and
permanent storage of CO2. I conclude that the EU would do well by taking the U.S.
experience as example, using a tax credit as a tool for incentivizing investment in
carbon capture and sequestration.
