Until it is possible to use renewable resources on a larger scale without endangering security of supply, transitional instruments need to be designed.

The CO2 will be captured and transported to subsoil reservoirs where it is permanently stored. Because of its geological structure the Netherlands is considered to be suitable for large-scale CO2 storage. The Groningen Centre of Energy Law (GCEL) has analysed the legal instrum
