Aker Carbon Capture awarded study by TES to capture 400,000 tonnes CO2 per year in Germany
Aker Carbon Capture has been awarded a feasibility study by TES, to explore the
implementation of a carbon capture plant at a waste-to-energy facility in
Germany. The planned capture capacity will be 400,000 tonnes CO2 per year. The
captured CO2 will be transported by railcar to the TES facilities at
Wilhelmshaven in Northern Germany to produce e-NG, which is electric natural gas
derived from green hydrogen and CO2. TES H2 is a global green energy company
leading the way in the production of e-NG.
“We are excited to be working with TES on this innovative decarbonization
project. By using recycled CO2 to deliver green energy to users, further CO2
emissions are being avoided, contributing to Germany’s goal to achieve Net-Zero
greenhouse gas emissions by 2045. We aim to deliver our modular Just Catch 400
unit, which has gained high market interest since its recent launch”, said Jon
Christopher Knudsen, Chief Commercial Officer at Aker Carbon Capture.
“We look forward to the collaboration with Aker Carbon Capture on our route
towards net-zero. This evaluation of an industrial scale project will allow us
to select the best of different available capture technologies based on real
-life performance going forward in massive scale up”, said Jens Schmidt, Chief
Technology Officer at TES.
This is the third study awarded to Aker Carbon Capture in Germany, Europe’s
largest economy and CO2 emitter. The country aims to cut its carbon dioxide
emissions by 65% by 2030 compared with 1990 and to become carbon neutral by
2045. Carbon capture, utilization and storage (CCUS) has been identified as
playing an important role in the country’s goal to achieve these targets. The
German government is expected to publish its Carbon Management Strategy later
this year.
The study awarded to Aker Carbon Capture will assess the optimal CO2 capture,
conditioning, liquefaction and temporary storage facility. The captured CO2 will
be the source material to produce e-NG, which is a sustainable alternative to
fossil natural gas. It’s created by combining green hydrogen from renewable
power with recycled CO2 from industrial emissions and biogenic CO2, to create
“synthetic methane” or “green gas”. This conversion will take place in a region
where green electricity and therefore green hydrogen is plentiful, making it
highly cost effective.
e-NG is easy to transport and store, which makes it a viable and scalable clean
energy source. It is chemically identical to natural gas and blends easily into
the existing fuel mix. This makes it a very simple and cost-effective solution
for scaling up the green transition. By 2030, TES plans to produce around 15 TWh
of e-NG annually, which is equivalent to 0.4 megatons of green hydrogen.
At Twence’s waste-to-energy facility in the Netherlands, Aker Carbon Capture is
currently delivering a Just Catch unit with a capacity of 100,000 tonnes CO2 per
year. The company also started in May of this year the delivery of five Just
Catch units to Ørsted’s bioenergy facilities in Denmark, with a design capture
capacity of 500,000 tonnes CO2 per year. These flagship projects contribute to
the company’s mission to serial produce carbon capture units providing cost and
delivery benefits for the mid-scale emitter market.

Røkkes karbonfangst tok innversvingen på Technip
Hafslund Celsio har tatt en viktig milliardkontrakt fra det franske leverandørkonsernet og gitt det til Aker Carbon Capture i stedet.
Egentlig var det franske Technip som skulle levere karbonfangstanlegget på avfallsanlegget på Klemetsrud i Oslo, men nå har Hafslund Celsio gitt milliardkontrakten til Aker Carbon Capture og Aker Solutions istedet.
Det bekrefter Hafslund Celsio til Finansavisen.
Kontrakten som nå ryker var ifølge en melding fra Technip i 2022 verdt mellom 250 og 500 millioner euro, tilsvarende 2,9 til 5,9 milliarder kroner med dagens kurs.
Aker Carbon Capture meldte selv denne uken at de hadde blitt tildelt en såkalt Feed-kontrakt for det innledende ingeniørarbeidet med fangstanlegget på Klemetsrud, men der kom det ikke frem at konkurrenten var helt ute av bildet.

Et av de sentrale begrepene er de engelske ordene «abated» og «unabated». Ifølge ordnett kan abate oversettes med redusere, minke, mildne, dempe, lindre.
Men på toppmøtespråk betyr ordene noe annet.
Å bruke kull, olje og gass «unabated» er å gjøre som i dag: Bruke brennstoffet og la utslippene gå opp i atmosfæren.
«Abated» bruk av kull, olje og gass betyr at man gjør noe for å fjerne eller redusere utslippene.
Det er ingen klar definisjon av hva det betyr, skriver New York Times. I praksis blir «abated» tatt for å bety karbonfangst- og lagring, eller CCS som man sier i klimasjargongen.

Aker Carbon Capture awarded feasibility study by waste-to energy player in Switzerland
Aker Carbon Capture has been awarded a feasibility study by Limeco, a Swiss
company that is planning to construct a new waste-to-energy plant in Dietikon,
in the canton of Zurich. Carbon Capture and Storage is expected to be mandatory
for future waste-to-energy plants in Switzerland.
“We are excited to collaborate with Limeco in their decarbonization efforts.
Decarbonizing the waste-to-energy industry is crucial to achieving Switzerland’s
2050 net zero target”, said Jon Christopher Knudsen, Chief Commercial Officer at
Aker Carbon Capture. “With our modular Just Catch offering we have a strong
foothold in the waste-to energy segment. The award of this feasibility study is
further validation that the CCUS market is accelerating,” continued Knudsen.
The new waste incineration plant will consist of two identical incineration
lines. Aker Carbon Capture’s standardized and modularized Just Catch carbon
capture units are developed for this volume of CO2 and will be able to provide a
perfect fit with Limeco’s requirements. The CO2 will be liquified for transport
by truck or train. Since Limeco’s waste-to-energy plant is a greenfield project
to produce district heating, heat integration between the incineration plant and
the carbon capture plant can be used to maximize the district heat production.
This will provide an overall attractive business case for Limeco, while at the
same time contributing to Switzerland’s national ambitions for reduction of
greenhouse emissions.
“As part of the Limeco Masterplan 2050 and in the context of the Swiss
government’s energy and climate strategy, the basics are to be laid for an
integrated cross-generation project. CO2 capture and logistics at the site are
important and sensitive issues for the layout of the future plants and the
upcoming planning. At this early stage, all future options and developments must
be taken into account so that they can be implemented at a later stage,” says
Markus Bircher, who is responsible for the project at Limeco.
Switzerland currently has?29 waste-to-energy plants?that emit a total of?4.5
million tonnes of CO2 per year. Approximately?50% of the CO2 emissions are
biogenic, while the other?50% are of fossil origin.
At Twence’s waste-to-energy facility in the Netherlands, Aker Carbon Capture is
currently delivering a Just Catch unit with a capacity of 100,000 tonnes CO2 per
year. Recently construction started at two of Ørsted’s bioenergy facilities in
Denmark, where Aker Carbon Capture is delivering five Just Catch units with a
total design capture capacity of 500,000 tonnes CO2 per year. ?At the CCS
project at the Klemetsrud waste-to-energy plant, Aker Carbon Capture, Aker
Solutions and Celsio will through the FEED establish a framework for an
intention to execute an engineering, procurement, construction, installation,
and commissioning contract with a design capacity of 400,000 tonnes CO2 per
year. These flagship projects contribute to Aker Carbon Capture’s mission to
standardize and modularize carbon capture plants, with reduced footprint and
significant cost and energy benefits, for the small and mid-scale emitter
market.
Limeco is located in the Limmat Valley close to Zurich in Switzerland. Limeco
treats regional waste and cleans wastewater in a sustainable way. With its
plants, Limeco produces CO2-neutral heating and cooling (district heating),
renewable electricity and green gas: Limeco thus makes a significant
contribution to the energy and climate transition and strengthens the region’s
energy independence. The municipalities what support Limeco are Dietikon,
Geroldswil, Oberengstringen, Oetwil an der Limmat, Schlieren, Unterengstringen,
Urdorf and Weiningen.

Det skal ACC ha, de er gode på å selge seg inn :).
Når det er sagt er de kanskje enda bedre på PR og kommunikasjon. Der har Capsol noe å lære. 
ACC er involvert i mange mulighetsstudier. Just catch modulene virker å være veldig attraktive og de har jo store referanseprosjekter allerede. Spennende å se close rate etterhvert, pipe ser lovende ut:)
The European Union (European Union | LinkedIn) will be calling for the ramping-up of #carboncapture to 450 million tonnes annually by 2050*.
The industrial #carbon management strategy, expected to be published on February 6th, states: “Reaching economy-wide climate neutrality by 2050 will require carbon removals to counter-balance residual emissions from hard-to-abate sectors within the EU at the latest by 2050 and to achieve negative emissions thereafter”
*Current global carbon capture is a combined 50 million tonnes.

Aker Carbon Capture and MAN Energy Solutions join forces to accelerate CCUS in North America
Aker Carbon Capture and MAN Energy Solutions have signed a Memorandum of
Understanding to jointly pursue opportunities related to carbon capture,
utilization and storage (CCUS) and CO2 compression in the North American market.
The agreement leverages MAN’s expertise in compressor technology and system
integration, as well as Aker Carbon Capture’s proven amine technology and carbon
capture products. The adoption of standardized and modularized solutions will
contribute to drive scale through cost-efficient developments with optimized
energy consumption and delivery time.
The two companies are currently collaborating on delivering the world’s first
carbon capture plant for the cement industry at Heidelberg Materials’ Brevik CCS
project in Norway.
“We are thrilled to expand our cooperation with MAN Energy Solutions to the
North American market, where we see significant potential for CCUS to drive the
transition towards net zero”, said Jonah Margulis, Head of North America at Aker
Carbon Capture. “This agreement will strengthen our position to remove and
reduce carbon emissions from industries and energy solutions, which is supported
by strong incentives from the U.S. Government”.
“We are delighted to work with ACC, which appreciates our comprehensive
expertise in compressor solutions in general and in the area of CO2 compression
in particular. We feel encouraged by the high level of interest in our technical
solution concepts that we are on the right path towards sustainable
decarbonization of the industries that have previously had particularly high
emissions”, said Dr. Marco Ernst, Head of Sales and Project Management CCS at
MAN Energy Solutions.
North America is one of the leading regions for CCUS globally, with a large
number of projects under development and in operation. According to Rystad
Energy, the total volume of CO2 captured could reach 200 million tonnes per year
in this region by 2030, which is twice the size of the current European market.
Noen tanker om tall i morgen?
Gitt dagen i dag så har jeg ekstremt lave forventninger
Men det var i mine øyne en veldig rar reaksjon på ingenting. Med tanke på meldinga dagen før også.
Setter en knapp på at det var usikkerhet som gjorde at flere ble usikre. Vi får se i morgen om det var dumt å doble beholdningen. Kan godt være:)
Mulig det var noen store som kastet kortene. Får håpe det ikke kommer en negativ overraskelse i morgen. De har jo hele tiden hatt noen hundre mill i omsetning å skilte med, vil det endre seg i morgen ? Kjenner for dårlig til eksisterende inntektsstrøm
Mulighetene innen CCS fremover er jo voldsomme. Og de er med på et hav av mulighetsstudier. Og den de meldte om på Klemetsrud er vel ganske sikker ?
Det er nødt til å være bunnlinja som er grunnen til den kjølige mottakelsen i dag.
Det helt vesentlige å forstå da er om dette bare er nå og at de vil tjene gode penger hvis de vinner kontrakter fremover ? I verste fall er det noen som har regnet seg frem til at modellen ikke gir god lønnsomhet uansett. Altså at marginbildet er for dårlig
Det er acc-anlegg.
Jeg ser overskriften kutter litt uheldig, det er ccs i et smelteverk som er “world first”, selvsagt ikke carbon capture generelt.
Ser ACC logoen på containeren der ja😀
Ser på LinkedIn at de takker for samarbeidet.
Burde kommet frem tydeligere i selve saken
