Nearly 1 million tonnes a year of avoided CO2 take a step closer as Viridor’s £0.4Bn UK first carbon capture project selected for final stage of Government competition
Nearly 1 million tonnes a year of avoided CO2 take a step closer as Viridor’s £0.4Bn UK first carbon capture project selected for final stage of Government competition
One of the UK’s largest Energy from Waste (EfW) facilities, Viridor’s Runcorn facility has been shortlisted for the final stage of the Government’s industrial carbon capture (ICC) sequencing process.
Plant would be a c. £0.4 Bn of Viridor investment in carbon capture for energy from waste
Runcorn’s Carbon Capture Project, a UK first for the waste sector, will capture c.0.9 million tonnes of CO2 a year
The plant will provide stable long-term baseload CO2 supply to the HyNet industrial carbon capture cluster in North West England, supporting the development of a strategic industrial decarbonisation hub.
