In Japan, Evero Energy Group, a low-carbon waste-to-energy company, has announced that it will be partnering with Mitsubishi Heavy Industries to deliver its InBECCS (Ince Bioenergy with Carbon Capture and Storage) project.
The InBECCS project will be retrofitted on Evero’s Ince Bio Power site, a waste wood to energy facility located in the North-West of England, with proximity to the Hynet industrial cluster.
Greg Williams, Head of External Affairs at Evero, said: “Installing carbon capture on Ince Bio Power will result in a BECCS project with excellent sustainability credentials, and the ability to deliver engineered removals at scale. Its feedstock is locally sourced waste wood that would otherwise be landfilled or exported. It is also well positioned on the Protos energy park in close proximity to HyNet’s prospective CO2 pipeline.”
The project would generate as much as 250,000 tons of engineered carbon removals a year, once operational in 2029.
Kenji Terasawa, CEO and Head of Engineering Solutions at MHI, said: “BECCS will be a key instrument to decarbonize our power systems on the way to net zero. We look forward to applying our extensive expertise on CO2 capture in Evero’s innovative InBECCS project, helping the UK reach its ambitious decarbonization targets.”
