Carbon capture for gas power

A new technology project which could see up to £20 million invested by the Energy Technologies Institute (ETI) to develop and verify advanced carbon capture has been announced. The ETI has commissioned and funded a consortium to deliver the project which will see a 5MW carbon capture demonstration plant capable of capturing up to 95% of carbon dioxide emissions designed, built and tested by 2016. The technology will be designed to be used on new-build Combined Cycle Gas Turbine (CCGT) power stations or to retrofit Carbon Capture Storage (CCS) onto CCGT power stations.
