The design incorporates a hydrogen-fueled power generation facility. This reduces the CO2 intensity to a level that is close to zero. The CO2 will be stored via the Wolf Carbon Solutions operated Alberta Carbon Trunk Line.
CANADA (CCS) Name: Capital Power Genesee CCS Project Category: Commercial CCS Facility Status: Advanced Development (FEED) Country: Canada Start date: 2026 Industry: Power Generation Description: Enbridge and Capital Power are teaming up to add CCS to repowered units 1 and 2 at the Genessee Generating Station near Warburg, Alberta. The units will be repowered to NGCC. The CO2 will be transported and stored through Enbridge's open-access carbon hub and be operational in 2026, pending government approvals. DENMARK (CCS) Name: C4-Carbon Capture Cluster Copenhagen Category: Status: Country: Denmark Start date: 2025-2035 in steps Industry: Various Description: N/A NETHERLANDS (CCS) Name: Yara Sluiskil Category: Commercial CCS Facility Status: Early Development Country: Netherlands Start date: 2025 Industry: Fertiliser Production Description: Yara Sluiskil, an ammonia and fertilizer plant in the Netherlands, will capture, compress and liquify 0.87 million tonnes per year CO2 for transport to the Northern Lights Site, offshore Norway (as part of the Langskip Network). Yara and Northern Lights have agreed on the main commercial terms and will be the first ever cross border CO2 transport and storage agreement.
NORWAY (CCS) Name: Fortum Oslo Varme - Shipping Route Category: Commercial CCS Facility Status: Early Development Country: Norway Start date: 2025 Industry: Waste Incineration Description: The offshore Aurora area has been evaluated as the optimal storage site and will involve a combined ship and pipeline transportation system. NORWAY (CCS) Name: Hafslund Oslo Celsio- Truck Route Category: Commercial CCS Facility Status: Advanced Development (pending validation by proponent) Country: Norway Start date: 2025 Industry: Waste Incineration Description: Langskip CCS - Hafslund Oslo Celsio- Klemetsrud is in advanced development to capture approximately 0.4 million tonnes per year of CO2 by 2024 from its waste-to-energy recovery plant in southern Norway. The Northern Lights CO2 storage site has been evaluated as the optimal storage site and will involve a combined ship and pipeline transportation system. UNITED KINGDOM (CCS) Name: Tees Valley Energy Recovery Facility Project (TVERF) Category: Commercial CCS Facility Status: Early Development Country: United Kingdom Start date: 2026 Industry: Power Generation Description: SUEZ, Viridor and Green Recovery Projects Ltd (FCC and Icon Infrastructure) are now bidding to design, finance, build and operate the TVERF, which will be located at Teesworks on the site of the former British Steel works. In October 2021, the UK government selected the East Coast Cluster as one of the first two low-carbon industrial clusters to begin decarbonising the Humber and Teesside industrial regions from mid 2020s and this brings the prospect of utilising CCS at the TV ERF a major step closer. Its due to be operational on 2026.
USA ALABAMA (CCS) Name: NuDACCS Nuclear Direct Air CCS Project Category: Commercial CCS Facility Status: Advanced Development (FEED) Country: USA Start date: Under Evaluation Industry: Direct Air Capture Description: Battelle is completing a FEED study to define direct air capture using available thermal energy from Southern Company's Joseph M. Farley nuclear power plant in Columbia, Alabama. The DAC system is developed by AirCapture LLC that will separate CO2 from ambient air for off-site geologic storage.
