A more efficient approach to carbon capture and storage

Combining CO2 capture with heat recovery, BECCS is making the carbon capture and storage process even more efficient.

The project plans to install its world-class, full-scale bioenergy carbon capture and storage facility at an existing heat and power biomass plant in Stockholm. Once operational, it will capture and permanently store large quantities of CO2 from forestry waste – ultimately removing carbon from the atmosphere. In fact, it is estimated that the project will remove around 8 million tonnes of CO2 equivalent within its first 10 years of operation – placing BECCS at the vanguard of the rapidly developing net carbon removal market.
