In Norway, Frontier said it facilitated offtake agreements with Hafslund Celsio, Norway’s largest supplier of district heating and owner of Norway’s largest waste incineration plant in the outskirts of the capital, Oslo.
This offtake enables the first-ever carbon removal retrofit of a waste-to-energy facility. Frontier buyers will pay $31.6 million to remove 100,000 tons of CO2 between 2029 and 2030, the firm said.
Hafslund Celsio’s facility in Oslo processes around 350,000 metric tons of sorted residual waste each year. The facility incinerates this waste, and the excess energy is used to produce electricity and heat.
Through this offtake, Hafslund Celsio will retrofit its waste incineration facility with a unit that captures both types of CO2 emissions. The CO2 will then be transported by ship to the Northern Lights facility for permanent geological storage.
