The site

The outline is the boundary the promoter published. It can include cable, pipeline or road routes as well as the main site. 463 hectares inside the published boundary.

What is proposed

A full chain carbon capture, utilisation and storage (‘CCUS’) project, comprising a CO2 gathering network, including CO2 pipeline connections from industrial facilities on Teesside to transport the captured CO2 (including the connections under the tidal River Tees); a combined cycle gas turbine (‘CCGT’) electricity generating station with an abated capacity up to circa 860 MW of low carbon electricity, cooling water, gas and electricity grid connections and CO2 capture; a CO2 gathering/booster station to receive the captured CO2 from the gathering network and CCGT generating station; and the onshore section of a CO2 transport pipeline for the onward transport of the captured CO2 to a suitable offshore geological storage site in the North Sea.
