BECCS | TorchLight Bioresources, Vault 44.01, West Fraser | Hinton, Alberta | Canada | 2027 | Hinton Bioenergy Carbon Capture and Storage Project - Emissions Reduction Alberta (eralberta.ca) |
This project will capture and store biogenic carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions at West Fraser’s Hinton Pulp Mill site, permanently removing 1.3 million metric tonnes of CO2 from the atmosphere per year (Mt/yr). The proposed operation date is 2027. The permanent negative emissions resulting from the project could be utilized by hard-to-decarbonize sectors such as the aviation, shipping, aluminum, and steel industries, to reduce net emissions and achieve their climate goals.
