New demands from the energy and climate system
BioCCS- carbon negative
Flexibility – dynamic behaviour
New Business models including CCUS?
2-3000 Mt?
3400 Mt Aq
22000 Mt Aq
North Sea73000 Mt Aq
Norwegian Sea15500 Mt Aq
21000 - 400000 Mt?
Total Nordic CO2 storage capacity mapped until 2015
The storage capacities estimates are related to uncertainties and it requires further research to get better assessments. The storage capacity numbers changes, whenever new data are generated and better methods developed.*Result from EU GeoCapacity
Total Nordic CO2 storage capacity 134000 Mt in saline aquifers and hydrocarbon fields
120000 Mt in aquifers14000 Mt in hydrocarbon fields
Barents Sea6100 Mt Aq
12000 Mt HC

SOLVit- R&I @ workSolvents for the next generation of post combustion CO2 capture systems
The Solvit-project (2008-2015)
• A membrane skid was constructed and installed at the Statoil methanol synthesis plant in Tjeldbergodden• Capacity to handle 2.7 ton per day (200 Nm3/hour) syngas – 100 Nm3/hour H2
• The test period is planned for a one-year period until September 2017
Demonstration of H2 production technology
2.7 m2 active membrane area
450 °C and 50 bar
Context: H2 and CCS• The low carbon economy needs hydrogen for:
• Industrial decarbonisation
• Heating and cooling
• Transport (Marine, Rail, heavy trucks and cars)
• The low carbon economy needs CCS to:• Decarbonise industry
• Provide a credible carbon negative solution
• Provide the speed needed in the energy and climate transformation
• Combining hydrogen with CCS offers an exiting opportunity for synergies and value creation• Common use of infrastructure and the same offering to the end-user
• Flexible hydrogen production offering balancing value to the grid
• Value creation and sustainability from domestic assets on a long term scale19
Summary• Change of drivers for CCS R&I – focus on industrial emissions, carbon negative, CCUS,
flexibility and new buisness models
• CCS R&I is regaining momentum past COP21- no solution without CCS and BioCCS
• R&I has delivered new findings that is climbing up the TRL ladder- better solutions in terms ofenergy, emissions and operability
• Mission Innovation is a global initiative for R&I in CCS- we should team up to make a global effort through amalgation of global centres of excellence in the field
• …and don't forget the beauty of CCS and H2 working together – it's a game changer
