Developing Policies for the end-of-life of energy infrastructure: coming to terms with the challenges of decommissioning.

This paper introduces the magnitude and variety of net-positive end-of-life challenges to encourage the development of reasonable policies for current and future decommissioning projects. The paper provides the basis for the interdisciplinary thinking required to deliver an integrated decommissioning policy that incorporates circular economy principles to maximize value throughout the lifecycle of energy infrastructure.
