Challenge

As the world transitions to cleaner energy, the challenge is to deliver reliable and efficient power while significantly reducing carbon emissions.

The goal was to create the world’s first commercial scale gas-fired power station with carbon capture and storage (CCS), aiming to set a new standard for sustainable energy solutions. Our mission is to support the UK Government’s Clean Power 2030 ambition by generating flexible, dispatchable low-carbon power, boosting energy security, backing industries, and creating thousands of highly skilled jobs in Teesside and the Northeast.

Solutions

As part of our commitment to delivery, Technip Energies, leading a consortium with GE Vernova alongside construction partner Balfour Beatty and technology partner Shell Catalysts & Technologies, is at the forefront of this groundbreaking initiative.

NZT Power in the UK aims to capture up to 2 million tonnes of CO2 annually, which will be transported and permanently stored by the Northern Endurance Partnership, the UK’s first CO2 transportation and storage infrastructure project. This innovative initiative, backed by the UK Government’s £21.7 billion pledge to advance carbon capture projects, will produce up to 742 megawatts of low-carbon power, equivalent to the annual electricity needs of over one million UK homes.

Results

By prioritizing sustainability, Technip Energies remains dedicated to amplifying the positive impact of the project. It is expected to create and support over 3,000 construction jobs, driving economic growth and supporting local communities. This landmark development will also attract private investment and help the UK achieve its climate goals, aligning with the long-term objective of emission reduction by 2050.
