ION Clean Energy has unveiled ICE Blocks™, their new line of self-contained, modular carbon capture units tailored for smaller post-combustion emission sources like natural gas facilities and other hard-to-abate flue gas emitters. The units, designed in partnership with Modular Plant Solutions, are quickly deployable, scalable, and transportable via road, rail, or sea.
Equinor, Shell, and TotalEnergies have stored the first CO₂ volumes at Norway’s Northern Lights CCS project, marking the world’s first operational open-access CO₂ transport and storage facility. Phase 1 capacity of 1.5 million tonnes per year is fully booked, with Phase 2 set to expand to 5 million tonnes annually.
Mitsubishi Electric signs collaboration agreement with Industrial Technology Research Institute, the Taiwan Tobacco & Liquor Corporation and Jhunan Brewery for demonstration tests to capture and utilize CO₂ from brewery flue gas in a beer production line.
Block Energy is pleased to announce that it has completed its initial CO2 injection as part of the Carbon Capture and Storage ("CCS") project. Following data review, injection rates will likely be optimised, providing the potential to increase per-well injection capacity.
The Sweetwater Carbon Storage Hub successfully completed the drilling operations for a second deep-characterization well, a key step in advancing commercial-scale carbon sequestration in Wyoming.
