UK energy-from-waste operator Enfinium is starting the first carbon capture and storage (CCS) pilot scheme in Wales – and it will be the first deployed in the wider HyNet industrial energy cluster.
In April, Enfinium will relocate the CCS pilot plant currently at its Ferrybridge-1 facility in West Yorkshire to Parc Adfer in Deeside Industrial Park. The pilot plant will be installed and operated by global clean tech company Kanadevia Inova.
The facility is a candidate for grant support through the UK government’s Track-1 HyNet Expansion programme and could accelerate economic growth and decarbonisation in North Wales subject to government approval in the coming months.
A new pilot plant will be installed at Ferrybridge by Nuada, a UK technology company scaling an innovative metal-organic framework (MOF) technology that captures carbon dioxide (CO2) from point sources through a vacuum swing process. This innovation has the potential to deliver significant efficiencies when deployed at commercial scale.
