It will be based in North Wales, with hope of becoming operational by 2027

Cement giant Holcim and ENGIE are working on technology that offers energy storage in cement

Projects will help advance point-source CCS technologies that can capture at least 95% of carbon emissions from facilities that produce commodities like cement and steel

Countries and organisations around the world are racing towards net zero emissions targets. Major companies including Microsoft, Google, Siemens and Unilever have pledged to balance their emissions to net zero before 2050.

Sulzer Chemtech and Blue Planet have developed a new technology they claim ‘more than offsets’ the carbon footprint of cement

Carbon dioxide will be directly injected from power plants into a concrete mixture where it will be permanently stored

Carbon recycling is among the eligible technologies that will secure a share from the fund

They include the cement, glass, ceramics and paper sectors, which are responsible for 10% of UK carbon emissions

The project is expected to be able to capture around 400,000 metric tonnes of carbon dioxide every year if it is approved for state funding
