Part 1: Licensing of Carbon Dioxide Transport and Storage Chapter 1: Licensing of Activities Section 8: Power to create licence types
In the future, the market may evolve such that it may become appropriate for separate licences to be granted to cover distinct elements of a transport and storage network, to allow operators to specialise in the provision and operation of certain elements of the transport and storage infrastructure, for example to cover the onshore and offshore elements separately, and which may necessitate different licence conditions. Section 8 enables the Secretary of State, by regulations, to provide for the creation of different types of licence for the licensable activities specified in section 2(2).
