ABB and Pace aim to reduce CCS costs

Engineering companies form partnership to de-risk CCS projects with digital twin technology

Swiss engineering company ABB has signed a partnership agreement with UK-based Pace CCS aimed at reducing the risk and capital cost of deploying CCS at industrial facilities. The partnership will focus on the use of digital twin technology, which provides a virtual replica of a physical process or facility, simulating the design stage and allowing for testing scenarios to deliver proof of concept, ABB says. The technology will map out various scenarios, including subsurface modelling. “To date one of the biggest challenges to the mainstream adoption of CCS has been a lack of operational practice across the full value chain, but the combined expertise of ABB and Pace can change this,” says Ma
