Norway can put in place the capture and storage of CO2 from three different industrial plant 12.6 billion.
This information comes from a feasibility study conducted by MPE in collaboration with a number of industry players.
the cost of planning and developing the capture and storage of CO2 from industry are estimated at 7.2 billion if it only captured CO2 from one industrial plant, and to 12.6 billion if the captured CO2 from all three industrial plants that have participated in the feasibility study.
Uncertainty margin is 40 percent in both directions. This means that the price tag at worst could rise to 17.6 billion.
Half price
– It is very good that there are specific projects for the whole chain, that all three projects going on and that it is relatively inexpensive, says political advisor Camilla Svendsen Skriung Zero to Aftenposten.
Jens Stoltenberg canceled in 2013 its planned “moon landing” at Mongstad when Statoil indicated that the price of a full-scale capture CO2 would reach 25 billion.
This facility would lap 1 million tonnes of CO2 per year, while the three options the government is now studying will cost 12.6 billion – for 1.3 million tonnes. Here is also the storage of CO2 included, while this was not included for the Mongstad the project.
Postponement worries
Norwegian politicians have set a goal to establish at least one full-scale plant for the capture and storage of CO2, CCS, 2020.
Last week went Tord Lien and said it could be difficult to get a full-scale system in place by 2020.
– We are concerned that there is no financial ties in this, and of course disappointed that the project be postponed until 2022. We believe this takes time because the government lets it take time and think it could have been resolved more quickly, says Skriung.
Also SV party secretary Kari Elisabeth Kaski is concerned:
Recommend all
the study has looked at opportunities to capture and store CO2 from three different actors: the cement factory Norcem in breivik, ammonia plant to Yara at Porsgrunn, and waste incineration plant at Klemetsrud.
– Opportunity studies show that CO2 capture is technically feasible at all three locations and that the total will be possible to capture up to 1.5 million tonnes CO2 per year, the report said.
Gas Nova recommended in the report that the Government goes ahead with all three projects, partly because competition projects between will help to bring down costs.
– further study of several sources also makes the project less vulnerable if one or more capture agents were to fall in the further process, writes Gas Nova in its recommendation.
the CO2 captured will be temporarily stored and transported by ship, before it is injected into the rock layers below the sea floor. Statoil has conducted a study of three different potential storage sites. The Company has determined that the best solution is to build an onshore by pipeline to Smeaheia area, located east of the Troll field in Hordaland.
Catch and Release
At the waste incineration plant at Klemetsrud in Oslo has been since January of CO2 captured – and let it out again. The aim of the test project is to make the facility the world’s first carbon-guzzling garbage incinerator.
The feasibility study has looked at different ways to transport the gas from Klemetsrud Oslo harbor, where it will be loaded onto ships. The report concludes that it is currently the best option is to transport gas in tanker trucks to the harbor. The report also looked at an alternative where the gas is transported to a shared cache in Grenland, before it is shipped to Smeaheia.
The money comes in 2019
The government writes in a press release that the plans for work on CO2 sequestration will be presented in the state budget for 2017 this fall.
the report recommends that a combined conceptual and preliminary engineering phase announced in autumn 2016 and that the contracts for this phase is concluded during the first quarter of 2017. it is planned that there be an investment decision in the spring of 2019, making the project could be operational in 2022.
– Procrastination
– there are concern fully that this is so dependent on political processes, and that the investment decision is pushed until 2019, then we may well be a different government. We believe government must set aside money for the project already in autumn’s budget, says Skriung.
Also SV Heikki Holmås believes the process of putting in place CO2 capture can go faster.
– the government hides behind it to implement an industrial process, but forces the industry to wait for the government’s procrastination, says Holmås said.
postponed the decision on the construction of a full-scale treatment plant can do that Oslo municipality not when climate goals. You can read more about here:
