Nyhetsklipp med fokus på CO2-håndtering fra Gassnova SF

Høyre vil ha gasskraft uten rensing fra dag én

NTB: Høyre vil sette i gang gasskraftverk i Møre og Romsdal, uten krav om full CO2-rensing fra dag én. Frp hilser utspillet velkommen, mens regjeringen sier blankt nei. Les mer

CLIMIT-programmet har innvilget støtte til IEA summerschool 2010

Climit: På programstyret møte i februar ble det besluttet å innvilge 500 000 NOK til den årlige sommerskolen til IEA. Årets sommerskole arrangeres på Svalbard 22.-28. august. Skolen tiltrekker seg 40-50 PhD/masterstudenter fra hele verden og i tillegg vil nok en 20-30 CO2-håndteringseksperter dukke opp også. IEA samarbeider med BIGCCS og SUCCESS som er de to nye Forskningssentrene for miljøvennlig energi (FME) med spesialisering innen CO2-håndtering. Les mer

Vil hindre CO2-lekkasjer

Forskning.no: CO2 er ikke som andre gasser når den skal transporteres i rør. Forskerne hos Statoil og SINTEF vil avdekke hvordan rørsystemet kan sikres mot lekkasjer av klimagassen og andre driftsproblemer. Les mer

– CO2-fangst er et elendig klimatiltak

Teknisk Ukeblad: Det er billigere å ruste opp hele jernbanenettet enn å rense et eneste gasskraftverk. Les mer

- Veldig dyrt å rense gasskraftverk

Nettavisen: Karbonfangst og karbonlagring er lite kostnadseffektive klimatiltak, hevder professor. Klimakur-utvalget innrømmer at det blir krevende. Les mer

CO2 Capture and Storage Gains a Growing Foo thold

Yale Environment 360: The drive to extract and store CO2 from coal-fired power plants is gaining momentum, with the Obama administration backing the technology and the world’s first capture and sequestration project now operating in the U.S. Two questions loom: Will carbon capture and storage be affordable? And will it be safe? Les mer

New rules could affect coal-fired power plants

Sanluisobispo.com: The Obama administration proposed new rules Thursday for how federal agencies should apply one of the nation's signature environmental laws, a move that could affect construction of new coal-fired power plants and other government-approved projects that produce large amounts of greenhouse gases.

Injecting Tiny Proteins Into the Hunt for 'Clean Coal'

New York Times: As big engineering fixes go, "clean coal" has proved an elusive concept. Carbon capture projects remain experimental, expensive and energy intensive. But working with some of the tiniest things in nature, scientists are engineering proteins found in living things to trap carbon dioxide from coal-fired power plants. Les mer

Saudi speeds up CO2 plans

Upstreamonline: State oil giant Saudi Aramco plans to inject carbon dioxide into the world's biggest oilfield by 2012, a year ahead of previous plans, a government official said today. The giant field Ghawar pumped 5 million barrels per day in 2008, more than half of top oil exporter Saudi Arabia's output. The kingdom announced plans last year for a pilot project to pump the climate-warming gas into the field to both improve production and reduce emissions. Les mer

Climate change p rojects move to slow lane

Edmonton Journal: The Alberta government is applying the brakes to two major pieces of its climate change strategy -- carbon capture and storage and public transit systems will proceed more slowly than expected. Les mer
