Acorn has a major role to play in supporting the UK’s decarbonisation effort by creating infrastructure and facilities that will allow industry to capture, transport and store CO2 emissions. With net zero goals fast approaching making these projects a reality is vital.
Air View Engineering Ltd is a Direct Air Capture Start-up aiming to provide smaller, more cost-efficient Carbon Capture Solutions with the sole goal of greatly increasing their use throughout the world.
Aker Carbon Capture is a pure-play carbon capture company with solutions, services and technologies serving a range of industries with carbon emissions, including the cement, bio and waste-to-energy, gas-to-power and blue hydrogen segments. Aker Carbon Capture’s proprietary, carbon-capture technology offers a unique, environmentally friendly solution for removing CO2 emissions.
Cory is one of the UK’s leading recycling and waste management companies. The company plans to install carbon capture technology at its existing EfW facility, as well as its planned Riverside 2 EfW facility, with the potential to create the world’s largest single-site waste decarbonisation project.
HyNet is the UK’s leading industrial decarbonisation project. We are unlocking a low carbon future across the north west of the UK – creating new roles, safeguarding existing jobs, growing a skills base and attracting investment into the region. HyNet will reduce the amount of carbon dioxide emitted from across the region by a quarter starting in the mid-2020s. We will do this both by locking away the carbon dioxide emitted by heavy industry and by providing locally-produced low carbon hydrogen to power for industry, transport and to heat for our homes and businesses.
Our Green Energy Hubs not only avoid emissions, but actively capture carbon that would otherwise be released into the atmosphere, making them among the most valuable tools in the fight against climate change.
Porthos is developing a project to transport CO₂ from industry in the Port of Rotterdam and store this in empty gas fields under the North Sea. Porthos stands for Port of Rotterdam CO₂ Transport Hub and Offshore Storage.
