Up to €300M has been awarded to the White Rose CCS project in the UK under the EU NER300 funding competition second call for proposals. Developed by Capture Power Limited, a consortium between Drax, Alstom and BOC, the proposed 426MW coal power plant, located near Selby in North Yorkshire, will be equipped with CCS technology from the outset and 90% of all the CO2 produced by the plant will be captured and transported by pipeline for permanent storage beneath the North Sea.
