Aker Carbon Capture Secures Study for Integrating Carbon Capture in Waste-to-Energy Plants Across Northern Europe

Aker Carbon Capture, a leading provider of carbon capture solutions, has announced its latest project to assess the integration of carbon capture technology across multiple biomass and waste-to-energy facilities in Northern Europe. This initiative, focusing on four initial plants, will leverage Aker Carbon Capture's modular Just Catch units, designed to offer cost and delivery benefits through serial-produced carbon capture units tailored to specific customer requirements.

Jon Christopher Knudsen, Chief Commercial Officer at Aker Carbon Capture, expressed enthusiasm for the project, highlighting its potential to contribute to the successful realization of carbon capture, utilization, and storage (CCUS) projects. This study underscores Aker Carbon Capture's prominent position in the European market, backed by proven technology and a significant project portfolio.

The European Commission's proposal for a 90% net greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions reduction by 2040 aligns with Aker Carbon Capture's efforts. The company is currently delivering seven carbon capture plants, including a Just Catch 100 unit at the Twence waste-to-energy facility in the Netherlands and a large-scale plant for Heidelberg Materials' cement plant in Brevik, Norway. Additionally, Aker Carbon Capture is providing five Just Catch 100 units to Ørsted's bioenergy facilities in Denmark, contributing to the company's mission to produce carbon capture units for the mid-scale emitter market.
