Feasibility study into viable route-to-store value chains for an Energy Recovery Facility (ERF) in the UK. Project included initial screening of transportation and store options before carrying out a more detailed techno-economic assessment of selected value chains.
Motivation:
The client has ambitions to reduce emissions across its portfolio of ERFs in the UK. As such, Goal7 was asked to carry out a feasibility assessment on transportation routes from one of the sites to different transport and storage (T&S) networks to secure geological storage of emissions.
Our Approach:
A long list of viable options was created, casting the net wide to consider Track and merchant projects in the UK which offered a credible tie-in point from the emitter site. This long list was screened for any showstoppers, which was shared with the client at a workshop where four different cases were agreed upon for further assessment. Goal7's assessment covered technical analysis, logistics, emissions, high level safety, key project risks, and levelised cost of transport (LCoT). The cases were then ranked against various screening criteria within each area considered.
Benefit and Impact:
Enabled client comparison between four different value chain options, demonstrating challenges and opportunities for carbon storage based on location, volumes, transportation options, and other key comparison metrics. This study provided material to support conversations with store operators, as well as other emitters considering aggregation of CO2.
