Dougie Sutherland, CEO of Cory, said the CCS project “has the potential to be game-changing”.
Cory is one of a growing number of waste and resources firms exploring the potential of CCS to drive down emissions from EfW plants. Earlier this year Viridor announced plans to fit CCS technology to a number of EfW plants in its UK fleet, in a move it said could eventually remove at least 1.6 million tonnes of CO2 from the atmosphere by 2040, while enabling it to become a ‘net negative’ emissions business by 2045.
