FEED Study for Teesside Power, Carbon Capture and Compression Project in the UK BP has awarded Technip Energies and GE Gas Power the front-end engineering design (FEED) study for the Net-Zero Teesside (NZT) Power project and the Northern Endurance Partnership s (NEP), carbon capture and compression project in the UK. The aim is to create the UK s first decarbonized cluster of industrial, power and hydrogen businesses.

Challenge The FEED study includes a first of a kind large scale amine-based post combustion carbon capture facility to integrate with a natural gas fired 860MW power plant. The scope also includes NEP s planned 4 million tonnes per annum (mtpa) Teesside high pressure CO2 compression and export facilities. GE Gas Power will provide proven expertise in natural gas combined cycle plant engineering, operability, and plant integration while Technip Energies will focus on carbon capture and compression plant using Shell s Cansolv™ carbon capture technology. They will be supported by Balfour Beatty for the construction.

Solution The companies will work together to develop a detailed plan for integrating the two technologies. This FEED study a detailed blueprint and operating business guide - will explore gas and steam turbine equipment enhancements to improve the capture process whilst seeking to minimize the impact to plant output and performance and preserve the value that a gas turbine brings to the grid.

Result Net-Zero Teesside Power will be one of the world s first commercial scale gas fired power station with carbon capture and will share the CO2 transportation and storage infrastructure being developed by the Northern Endurance Partnership. This project perfectly illustrates that cross-industries collaboration is central to reaching Net-Zero targets.
