Project Type: BECCS
Hinton Bioenergy CCUS
September 25, 2024This 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 […]
Mendota BECCS
March 1, 2023This joint venture looks to construct a BECCS plant which will convert agricultural waste biomass, such as almond trees, into a renewable synthesis gas that will be mixed with oxygen in a combustor to generate electricity. More than 99% of the carbon from the BECCS process is expected to be captured for permanent storage by […]
Drax BECCS
March 1, 2023Drax has submitted plans to build its multi-billion-pound bioenergy with carbon capture and storage project at its North Yorkshire power station. Construction work is due to begin in 2024 with the first of the BECCS units coming online in 2027 and the second in 2030. The project is one of 20 which has been shortlisted […]
