Numbers start to add up for Net Zero Teesside
The Northern Endurance Partnership has been formed to provide offshore infrastructure to support projects
Two of the UK’s most promising carbon capture and storage (CCS) projects received a substantial boost in late October with the announcement of a new partnership to develop offshore CO₂ transport and storage infrastructure in the UK North Sea. A consortium of BP, Italy’s Eni, Norway’s Equinor, the UK’s National Grid, Shell and Total confirmedt on 26 October the formation of the Northern Endurance Partnership (NEP). With BP as operator, NEP will provide infrastructure for the developing Net Zero Teesside (NZT) and Zero Carbon Humber (ZCH) decarbonised industrial clusters, both based on the coast of Northeast England. NEP has submitted a bid for funding from the UK government’s £170mn ($220mn)
