- The Rakkestad plant captures 10,000 tonnes of CO₂ annually from waste incineration.
- The plant is being certified by DNV for FSSC 22 000 compliance.
- A BECCS project at Kirkenær aims to capture 32,000 tonnes of biogenic CO₂ annually by 2028.
- Carbon Centric plans to reach 1 million tonnes CO₂ capture capacity by 2030.
Rakkestad Plant Launch
The Rakkestad facility has commenced operations, marking Norway's first operational carbon capture plant outside the Longship project. It captures CO₂ from a waste-to-energy incineration plant, producing food-grade liquid CO₂.
Certification and Capacity
The plant is undergoing certification by DNV to meet FSSC 22 000 standards. It has a capture capacity of approximately 10,000 tonnes of CO₂ per year, handling flue gas from the incinerator at full scale.
Future Projects
Carbon Centric is developing additional projects in Norway and the Nordics. A notable project at Kirkenær, in collaboration with Solør Bioenergi, aims to capture 32,000 tonnes of biogenic CO₂ annually by 2028, with plans to produce carbon dioxide removal certificates.
Strategic Goals
Carbon Centric aims to reach final investment decisions by 2030 on projects with a combined annual CO₂ capture capacity of 1 million tonnes, contributing to the establishment of a new green industry in the Nordics.
