Seven Companies Announce to Conduct Engineering Design Work for Japanese Advanced CCS (Carbon Capture and Storage) Project
Seven Corporations Exclaim to Conduct Engineering Originate Work for Eastern Evolved CCS (Carbon Snatch and Storage) Project
TOKYO, Sept 4, 2024 – (JCN Newswire) – ITOCHU Company, Nippon Steel Company, Taiheiyo Cement Company, Mitsubishi Heavy Industries, Ltd., INPEX CORPORATION, Taisei Company, and ITOCHU Oil Exploration Co., Ltd. that the seven corporations collectively proposed, has been selected by the Japan Organization for Metals and Energy Safety (hereinafter “JOGMEC”) to behavior “Engineering Originate Work for Eastern Evolved CCS Projects” (hereinafter “Work”), a public offered venture.(1)
CCS is positioned as a procedure for decarbonization that will maintain to be fully harnessed, severely in arduous-to-abate industries(Note2), to score two targets keep aside by the Eastern authorities: carbon neutrality in 2050 and a 46% discount in greenhouse gas emissions (from FY2013 stage) in FY2030. To expedite social implementation of CCS, JOGMEC issued a public call for evolved CCS initiatives in 2023 with the aim of reaching the a success underground storage of domestically-emitted carbon dioxide (CO2) by FY2030. And the Initiative became as soon as selected as one in every of the first evolved CCS initiatives in Japan to be eligible for governmental enhance.
The Initiative entails the idea that of the exercise of ships to transport CO2 separated and captured on the Nippon Steel’s Kyushu Works Oita Build and the Kawasaki Plant of DC CO., Ltd., a Taiheiyo Cement Neighborhood firm, to candidate storage web sites. In FY2023, a feasibility watch became as soon as conducted referring to to the CO2 separation, seize, transportation and storage, which integrated figuring out technical components within the total venture as smartly as analysis on financial viability and public acceptance.(3)
The Work selected this time entails Front Close Engineering Originate (FEED) work referring to to the separation, seize, ship transportation and storage of CO2 and appraisal drilling, as the next segment of the venture.(4) Per the outcomes of the feasibility watch talked about above, authorized engineering originate work will most likely be performed from the perspectives of every technical and financial viability for every component of the price chain with the aim of beginning operations by FY2030.
The seven corporations will proceed to cooperate with every varied to contribute to the realization of a sustainable society by aiming for the early social implementation of CCS in Japan.
