1JANUARY 2013 UPDATE

INTRODUCTION The Global Carbon Capture and Storage (CCS) Institute tracks the global status of large–scale integrated CCS projects (LSIPs). Institute staff around the world do so by maintaining direct and regular contact with the projects, systematically reviewing new CCS reports and closely screening relevant news and media release announcements.

This update summarises the current status of LSIPs worldwide and outlines the major developments that have occurred since the Institute’s Global Status of CCS: 20121 report was published in October 2012.

LSIPs are defi ned as projects involving the capture, transport and storage of carbon dioxide (CO2) at a scale of:

at least 800,000 tonnes of CO2 annually for a coal–based power plant; or

at least 400,000 tonnes of CO2 annually for other emission intensive industrial facilities (including natural gas–based power generation).

These thresholds correspond to the minimum volumes of CO2 typically emitted by commercial–scale power plants and other industrial facilities. To qualify as an LSIP, a project at this scale must store anthropogenic CO2 permanently in geologic storage sites. Projects that involve enhanced oil recovery (EOR) using anthropogenic CO2 may also satisfy this defi nition, as there is currently no clear standard or regulatory guidance on monitoring requirements involving CO2 storage associated with EOR.

The public dataset on LSIPs, which is maintained by the Institute, is amended on a quarterly basis to refl ect changes to the status and details of projects.2

A comprehensive overview of information on large–scale integrated CCS projects is provided on the Institute’s website.3

SUMMARY OF RECENT LSIP DEVELOPMENTSAs at the end of January 2013, the Institute had identifi ed 72 LSIPs (refer Figure 1) around the world, down three projects from the 75 reported in October 2012.

Since the Institute’s last report, one project has made a positive fi nal investment decision (FID). This brings the total number of projects operating or under construction (‘Execute’) to 17 and their total capture capacity4 to more than 37 million tonnes of CO2 per annum (Mtpa) (refer Figure 2). The remaining 55 LSIPs are in the planning stages of development and have a potential capture capacity of around 104 Mtpa. A steadily increasing number of LSIPs remains needed for the world to meet global climate mitigation objectives.

Three projects have been removed from the Institute’s LSIP listing due to being considered cancelled or on hold:

the PurGen One5 project in New Jersey, United States (US), at the ‘Define’ stage;

the Eemshaven CCS6 project in the Netherlands, at the ‘Evaluate’ stage; and

Pegasus Rotterdam7 project in the Netherlands, at the ‘Evaluate’ stage.

In November 2012, Northwest Upgrading Inc. announced8 it had made an FID on its Alberta Carbon Trunk Line (ACTL) with North West Sturgeon Refi nery CO2 Stream9 project. Construction is expected to break ground in early 2013; the plant is scheduled to commence operations in 2015. Around 2.6 Mtpa of CO2 will be captured at the new build North West Sturgeon Refi nery in Alberta, Canada, and sold for EOR. The announcement highlights the strength of the Canadian CCS industry and, more specifi cally, in the province of Alberta. The Quest10 project, which was confi rmed just a month earlier, is also located in Alberta.

GLOBAL STATUS OF LARGE–SCALE INTEGRATED CCS PROJECTS2

The Institute estimates that up to four additional LSIPs could reach an FID in the fi rst half of 2013, of which three plan to use the captured CO2 for EOR:

Summit Power’s Texas Clean Energy Project11 and the NRG Energy Parish CCS Project12, both in Texas (US);

Masdar and Emirates Steel Industries’ ESI CCS Project13 in Abu Dhabi (United Arab Emirates); and

Rotterdam Opslag en Afvang Demonstratieproject (ROAD)14 (the Netherlands), developed by a joint venture of E.ON Benelux and GDF Suez Group.

In a signifi cant setback to CCS demonstration targets in Europe, no CCS projects were awarded funding under the much anticipated fi rst round of the European Commission’s (EC) NER300 competition.

MAJOR REGIONAL DEVELOPMENTS

Europe While net project numbers in Europe have remained relatively stable during the past three years, there have been signifi cant changes to the Institute’s LSIP listing. Eight European projects have been cancelled or put on hold since 2010 and seven new projects announced. These changes refl ect both the dynamism of CCS activity in Europe and the ongoing diffi culties in assembling viable business cases for projects or making positive FIDs to move into construction.

ONE PROJECT APPROACHING FIDThe Rotterdam Opslag en Afvang Demonstratieproject (ROAD) in the Netherlands, developed by a joint venture of E.ON Benelux and GDF Suez Group and supported by the Rotterdam Climate Initiative (RCI), is expected to reach an FID in early 2013. ROAD and RCI are pursuing additional fi nancial support to address a shortfall caused by the European Union Emission Trading Scheme’s structurally low carbon allowance prices in recent years.

TWO PROJECTS ON HOLDThe EC’s NER300 competition has infl uenced the development of CCS projects in the Netherlands. The Eemshaven CCS and Pegasus Rotterdam projects (both at ‘Evaluate’) are considered to be on hold and have been removed from the Institute’s LSIP listing. This follows a decision by the Dutch Government to support only the Green Hydrogen project submission under the fi rst call for proposals of the NER300 competition.

The Institute anticipates that the number of projects in Europe will decrease further in the coming 18 months, as the outcomes of the United Kingdom (UK) CCS Commercialisation Programme and the second round of the NER300 competition become known.

OTHER PROJECT DEVELOPMENTSAdvanced design studies for 2Co Energy Ltd’s Don Valley Power Project16 in South Yorkshire, England, are progressing as specifi ed under the €180 million funding agreement it secured in 2010 from the European Energy Programme for Recovery. The project was not shortlisted for funding under the UK CCS Commercialisation Programme and, consequently, it was withdrawn from the NER300 competition. Accordingly, 2Co Energy and its partners are revisiting the project’s fi nancing structure.

NER300 COMPETITION—NO CCS PROJECTS FUNDEDThe EC announced its award decision under the fi rst call for proposals of the NER300 competition on 18 December 2012. No CCS projects were awarded funding, while more than €1.2 billion (US$1.6 billion) was awarded to 23 renewable energy demonstration projects.

This is a signifi cant setback to the original plan announced by European governments in 2008 to fund up to 12 CCS projects across the NER300’s two funding rounds. The EC expressed regret that no CCS projects were funded in the fi rst round and commented that:

Most CCS projects were, however, not confi rmed by the Member State concerned, and could therefore not be retained. Member States were unable to confi rm the projects for various reasons: in some cases there were funding gaps, while other CCS projects were not suffi ciently mature to allow for such confi rmation under the fi rst call for proposals.17

Of the nine CCS projects shortlisted, only the ULCOS Blast Furnace18 project secured the mandated co-funding agreement from its Member State (France), but it was subsequently withdrawn from the competition. Development of the project is continuing, with ArcelorMittal announcing in late December 2012 a commitment of at least €180 million over fi ve years to the host plant. An undisclosed fraction is expected to be allocated to the CCS project at the site.

All CCS projects shortlisted in the NER300’s fi rst funding round remain eligible for the second round. The second round will be funded from the sale of the remaining 100 million allowances in the New Entrant Reserve of the EU Emissions Trading Scheme and any unused funds from the fi rst round, including the €275 million originally earmarked for CCS projects.

The call for second round proposals is expected to occur during the fi rst quarter of 2013; the aim is to complete it by the year’s end. However, the EC and Member States, during the Climate Change Committee, committed to review the outcomes and process of the fi rst round before launching the second. The fact that no CCS projects could be awarded funding under the fi rst call for proposals, despite 11 pre-selected projects passing extensive technical and fi nancial due diligence assessments, signals the need to address certain issues before the second call is launched.

UK CCS COMMERCIALISATION PROGRAMMEOn 30 October 2012, the UK Department of Energy and Climate Change announced its shortlist of projects to compete for £1 billion (US$1.61 billion) in funding. The following four projects were selected:

Captain Clean Energy Project19 (formerly Caledonia Clean Energy Project), developed by the Summit Power Group, National Grid plc and CO2DeepStore (a Petrofac subsidiary). The integrated gasification combined cycle (IGCC) coal–fired power plant is to be based in Grangemouth, Scotland. The captured CO2 is to be transported reusing an existing pipeline infrastructure to a deep geological storage location in the Outer Moray Firth UK North Sea. Injection is to commence in 2018. Potential also exists for the gas to be sold for use in EOR projects.   

Peterhead Gas CCS Project,20 developed by Scottish and Southern Energy plc (SSE) and Royal Dutch Shell plc. The gas–fired Peterhead Power Station in Aberdeenshire, Scotland, is to be retrofitted to capture around 1 Mtpa of CO2. The CO2 will be transported by pipeline and stored approximately 100 km offshore in the depleted Goldeneye gas reservoir, more than 2 km under the North Sea.

Teesside Low Carbon,21 developed by a consortium formed by BOC, GDF Suez Group, Premier Oil and Progressive Energy. The IGCC coal–fired power plant will be located in the Wilton International chemical complex and connected to a new pipeline to transport the CO2 to an offshore deep geological storage location. It is expected that the Teesside Low Carbon consortium will make an investment decision in 2014, subject to appropriate planning and other regulatory approvals.

White Rose CCS Project,22 announced by project partners Alstom, Drax, BOC and National Grid (for transport). The project will develop an oxyfuel coal–fired power plant from which the CO2 will be captured and transported by a new pipeline and stored offshore in a deep geological storage site.

Three of the UK’s shortlisted bids also applied for EC fi rst round funding from the NER300 competition—the UK Government indicated nominal support for the Teesside Low Carbon and White Rose CCS projects. It is expected that the outcomes of the Commercialisation Programme will be announced during the fi rst half of 2013.

Middle East and North Africa (MENA)ONE PROJECT APPROACHING FIDIn the United Arab Emirates, Masdar and Emirates Steel Industries are aiming to reach an FID during the fi rst half of 2013 for their ESI CCS Project in Abu Dhabi. This direct-reduction iron production facility, a fi rst-of-a-kind at this scale, would capture around 0.8 Mtpa of CO2 for use in Abu Dhabi National Oil Company’s EOR operations. The project is scheduled to become operational in 2015.

OTHER PROJECT DEVELOPMENTSIn November 2012, BP announced that CO2 injection at the In Salah CO2 Storage23 project in Algeria had been temporarily suspended pending a business decision on whether to continue the commercial operation of the storage program at the site.

5JANUARY 2013 UPDATE

North AmericaThirteen of the 17 LSIPs in operation or under construction (‘Active’) are located in North America (more than 75 per cent); the US alone accounts for nearly half of the world’s Active LSIPs. The fi rst two power generation LSIPs under construction are located in North America—Boundary Dam Integrated Carbon Capture and Sequestration Demonstration Project24 in Saskatchewan, Canada, and Kemper County IGCC Project25 in Mississippi, US. Both are due to reach commercial operation in 2014. Lessons learnt from these projects as they progress to full–scale operation will have a critical infl uence on the success of other power generation LSIPs around the world in the coming years.

The North American region has the most advanced portfolio of CCS projects in the world (despite the total number of LSIPs decreasing from 39 projects in 2010 to 31) and has an estimated CO2 storage capacity of around 2,400 billion tonnes, including 225 billion tonnes for depleted oil and gas fi elds.26 New projects at the earliest stage of development (‘Identify’) are needed in North America to allow the region to take advantage of this substantial CO2 storage capacity and keep building on the lessons learnt from projects that have moved to construction or are approaching FID. As early-stage projects in North America benefi t from the relative maturity of the technology in the region, they will have the potential to achieve signifi cant cost decreases, which in turn will provide the confi dence that is essential to drive investment in commercial–scale CCS in North America and other regions.

TWO PROJECTS APPROACHING FIDThe Institute has identifi ed two additional power generation LSIPs in North America that could be in a position to reach an FID in the fi rst half of 2013. Both are in Texas, US, and plan to use the captured CO2 for EOR:

Summit Power’s Texas Clean Energy Project has progressed steadily over the past 18 months, securing all key permits and off-take agreements and signing Engineering, Procurement and Construction and Operations and Maintenance contracts with reputable providers. In partnership with Sinopec Energy and the Import–Export Bank of China, Summit Power is finalising the project’s financing plan.

an FID on the NRG Energy Parish CCS Project is expected in the first half of 2013, following the posting in September 2012 of the project’s Draft Environmental Impact Statement by the US Department of Energy. All agreements for the off-take of CO2 from the Parish power plant are now in place.

ONE PROJECT CANCELLEDSince the release of the Institute’s Global Status of CCS: 2012 report, one North American LSIP at the ‘Defi ne’ stage of the project asset lifecycle has been removed from the Institute’s LSIP listing due to being considered cancelled. In October 2012, SCS Energy LLC announced that its PurGen One project in New Jersey, US, was no longer under active development. The company has decided instead to prioritise investment in the other LSIP in its portfolio, the Hydrogen Energy California (HECA) Project27 in California, US. The commercial structure and design studies developed for the PurGen project will be used to support the development of the HECA project.

PROGRESS OF LSIPs UNDER CONSTRUCTIONOne additional project in North America has moved to construction since October 2012. In November 2012, the North West Redwater Partnership between North West Upgrading Inc. and Canadian Natural Upgrading Limited announced it had reached an FID on Phase 1 of its Alberta Carbon Trunk Line (ACTL) with North West Sturgeon Refi nery CO2 Stream project in Alberta, Canada. Construction will start in the fi rst half of 2013. Around 1.2 Mtpa of CO2 will be captured in the fi rst phase of the North West Sturgeon Refi nery and sold for EOR. The project has the potential to scale up to 3.6 Mtpa of CO2 through the later addition of two phases of 50,000 barrels per day. The North West Sturgeon Refi nery will be the fi rst oil refi nery to include CCS in its original design.

Construction of the second phase of the CO2 capture facilities at Occidental Petroleum’s Century Plant28 has been completed, providing an additional 3.4 Mtpa of CO2 capture capacity. The plant’s total capture capacity in operation now stands at 8.4 Mtpa of CO2.

In October 2012, Mississippi Power announced29 that the construction of its Kemper County IGCC Project was 70 per cent complete and that it had begun to install the gasifi er and CO2 capture unit at the site. As part of its ongoing reporting to the

Mississippi Public Service Commission, Mississippi Power stated that “ … the project is on schedule to be completed in May 2014 … ”, when the project is expected to reach commercial–scale operation. The plant’s start-up and testing is scheduled for 2013.

An agreement for the off-take of CO2 at SaskPower’s Boundary Dam Integrated Carbon Capture and Sequestration Demonstration Project in Saskatchewan, Canada, was signed in late December 2012. The full amount of CO2 captured at the plant (approximately 1 Mtpa) will be sold to Cenovus Energy to support its EOR operation near Weyburn in Saskatchewan. Construction works for the rebuild of Unit #3 of the Boundary Dam Power Station commenced in 2011; the project is expected to start commercial operation in April 2014.

The Air Products Steam Methane Reformer EOR project in Port Arthur, Texas (US), is expected to begin operating its Industrial CCS Project in the fi rst half of 2013. Ultimately, it will capture about 1 Mtpa of CO2 for use in EOR in Texas. Also in the US, the construction of CO2 capture facilities at ADM’s Decatur Ethanol Plant is on schedule, with the Illinois Industrial Carbon Capture and Storage Project30 expected to be fully operational in the third quarter of 2013.

OTHER PROJECT DEVELOPMENTSThe permitting process for SCS Energy’s HECA Project in the US is underway. The project, which is at the ‘Defi ne’ stage of the asset lifecycle, will benefi t from the lessons learnt by SCS Energy from its PurGen project, which has been cancelled.

The FutureGen 2.031 project (‘Evaluate’) in Illinois, US, is continuing to move ahead. In late December 2012, the Illinois Commerce Commission voted in favour of the power purchase agreement for the electricity that will be generated by the FutureGen plant in Meredosia. This effectively authorised the sale of power from the plant in the state grid. The target operation date remains 2017.

OT HER MAJOR DEVELOPMENTSOutcomes from UNFCCC conference in DohaThe establishment and refi nement of the arrangements for CCS in the Clean Development Mechanism (CDM) help create the institutional arrangements necessary for CCS as a mitigation option and enhance industry and public confi dence in CCS.

During the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change (UNFCCC) conference held in Doha, Qatar, from 26 November to 8 December 2012, two outstanding CCS issues under the CDM negotiations were dealt with at the 8th session of the Conference of the Parties serving as the Meeting of the Parties to the Kyoto Protocol (CMP 8).

The two issues were fi rst outlined at the Meeting of the Parties in 2011, after which the Subsidiary Body for Scientifi c and Technological Advice (SBSTA) was tasked to:

i. further explore the eligibility of CCS projects that involve the transport of CO2 from one country to another or which involve geological storage sites that are located in more than one country; and

ii. the establishment of a global reserve of certifi ed emission reduction units for CCS projects (in addition to the agreed temporary reserve of fi ve per cent).

The CMP decided in Doha that it could not make a defi nitive decision on either of these issues, and that more time was needed to generate learning-by-doing spill-overs from non-transboundary CCS projects in the CDM fi rst. The CMP agreed to consider these issues pending further recommendations from the SBSTA’s 45th session, scheduled for 2016. While this means that transboundary CCS projects will not be allowed to be registered in the CDM for the time being, the modalities and procedures adopted in 2011 remain fully intact and operational.

The CMP welcomed the work being undertaken by the CDM’s Executive Board to adopt documents that provide for the inclusion of CCS projects, and formally acknowledged that transboundary CCS projects would ultimately merit inclusion under the CDM.

Despite these outstanding issues, there appears to be nothing of a procedural nature stopping non-transboundary CCS project proponents from applying to have their projects registered under the CDM. While most CDM commentators would suggest that it may take some time for CCS projects to be fully rewarded under the CDM, the mechanism (and other project–based schemes) is generally recognised as a necessary and important source of additional funding for CCS projects in developing countries.

FIGURE A3 Volume of CO2 potentially captured and stored by LSIPs (Mtpa CO

2)

Figure A3 shows the volume of CO2 that could be stored in any given year by all current LSIPs and how this capacity is distributed across stages of the asset lifecycle, based on responses to the 2012 project survey. The total volumes recorded by projects in the 2011 and 2010 surveys are also provided for reference.

There are now 17 LSIPs operating or under construction, with a combined CO2 capture capacity of more than 37 Mtpa. This confi rmed capture capacity has increased by more than 9 Mtpa since the Institute’s 2010 project survey, representing a 30 per cent increase in the space of three years.

However, the total capture capacity of all identifi ed projects has decreased by roughly 20 Mtpa since 2010, as advanced, larger CCS projects have been cancelled and replaced with smaller initiatives or CCS hub concepts redefi ned to a more modest scale. As a result, the fi rst surge of new LSIPs entering operation expected to occur in 2015–16 (based on responses to the Institute’s 2010 and 2009 project surveys) has shifted over the past two years and is now projected to start from 2018–20.
