CCS Regulatory Comparison Matrix 2.0

Color	Meaning Regulations/proposals are:
	Similar
	Mixed
	Dissimilar
	Incomparable
	This issue is not addressed in either proposal/regulation.

The CCS Proposal Matrix is a tool that allows you to compare CCS regulations and regulatory proposals across a number of key issues. The matrix is not meant to judge the adequacy of various regulatory approaches or be a comprehensive study of various jurisdictions’ CCS-relevant regulations. It simply strives to compare CCS-specific regulations and regulatory proposals to each other to convey where key issues are managed similarly or differently and where they are not addressed.

 

How to Use the Matrix

Step 1: Select the desired CCS framework from the drop down menu.

Step 2: Using the colored legend as a guide, review a snapshot comparison of the various aspects of your selected framework with other evaluated CCS frameworks.

Step 3: Click on a colored cell to see more detail on that aspect of the comparison.

Feedback

The matrix is a dynamic comparison, and we want it to evolve with the changing regulatory landscape. If you disagree with our analysis, have a different perspective, or if the matrix has helped you, please let us know.
