North Star: This First-of-a-Kind Project in the U.K.’s Teesside Region Could Be the Template for Carbon Capture

Teesside, the urban region perched on the muddy banks of the River Tees in northeast England, used to be a global beacon of industry. In the mid-19th century, the port of Middlesbrough forged its reputation as “Ironopolis,” boasting nearly 100 blast furnaces that roared away round the clock. The town was also a major chemicals hub, drawing on the rock salt deposits at the mouth of the chilly North Sea to produce alkalis, fertilizers, and plastics.

This GE Vernova-Led Team of Engineers Is Fine-Tuning a Formula for Lower-Cost Carbon Capture

Nobody disputes the role that natural gas power plants play in electrifying the planet. A typical plant can reliably generate hundreds of megawatts (MW) of electricity within a few minutes of turbine ignition, keeping the lights on in hundreds of thousands of households.

Technip Energies and GE Vernova advance the UK’s transition to net-zero with one of the world’s first commercial scale gas-fired power and carbon capture projects

Net-Zero Teesside (NZT) Power is expected to be one of the first gas-fired power stations of its kind - fully integrated with carbon capture technology.Consortium and technology selection marks an important next step towards the proposed development of bp’s NZT Power project in the UK, aiming to capture up to 2 million tonnes of CO2 per year.Project is expected to provide flexible, dispatchable low-carbon power equivalent to the average electricity requirements of around 1.3 million UK homes, and to progress the deployment of carbon capture techn

Capturing Carbon: GE Has Been Working on CCUS Solutions in the U.S. and Europe. Next Stop: Asia.

Natural gas plants are an important part of the energy transition, as one of the tools to support more renewables being added to the grid. But despite the benefits gas offers in terms of reliability and availability, natural gas is a fossil fuel that produces carbon emissions (though much less than coal). GE Gas Power is working on a variety of ways to reduce the carbon emissions of gas-powered power stations. One of them is tantalizing: capture the carbon that’s emitted at the power station.
