CO2
They found the carbon drawn into the Earth’s interior where the tectonic plates collide tends to stay locked away at depth, rather than resurfacing in the form of volcanic emissions
They are expected to create nearly 470 direct jobs and deliver around $412m of investment, most of them in regional areas
Four selected projects aim to identify and reduce the risk of seismic disruptions and CO2 leakage in underground carbon dioxide storage facilities
The Peterhead CCS Power Station is planned to be a new 900MW gas-fired power station, which will be fitted with carbon capture technology that will enable it to remove carbon dioxide from its emissions
The fall in emissions are primarily due to changes in the mix of fuels used in electricity generation, with data revealing a 19% fall in coal generation and an increase in natural gas and renewable production
Energy prices return to more normal seasonal prices, but two world’s collide in carbon
It has issued two ‘expression of interest’ proposals and is calling on companies with relevant expertise to come forward to help deliver the projects
That’s the dire warning from the University of Exeter, which says this could cause a catastrophic feedback loop
The pilot project will run at AVR’s energy from waste plant at Duiven, 120 kilometres east of Rotterdam
