Energy Technology Institute launches new CCS project to help encourage floundering UK plans

0

The Energy Technologies Institute (ETI) has launched a new project, which aims to inject a fresh shot of action into the UK’s flailing carbon capture and storage (CCS) situation.

The ‘Impact of Brine Production on Aquifer Storage’ investigation will study the impact of removing brine from undersea stores which could be used to store captured carbon dioxide (CO2), and will also study the effects brine production could have on reducing costs and risks to store CO2 undersea in the future.

ETI’s view remains that CCS offers long term the lowest cost solution to meeting the UK’s legally binding 2050 climate change targets

The project will produce a cost-benefit analysis of brine production using ETI’s CO2Stored database and numerical models and will examine any changes in injectivity and storage capacity as a direct result of producing brine. It will also highlight any potential savings to be had.
