2. About the UKCCSRC
The UK Carbon Capture and Storage Research Centre (UKCCSRC) leads and coordinates a programme of underpinning research on all aspects of carbon capture and storage (CCS) in support of basic science and UK government efforts on energy and climate change.
The Centre brings together around 250 of the UK’s world-class CCS academics and provides a national focal point for CCS research and development.
Initial core funding for the UKCCSRC is provided by £10M from the Engineering and Physical Sciences Research Council (EPSRC) as part of the RCUK Energy Programme. This is complemented by £3M in additional funding from the Department of Energy and Climate Change (DECC) to help establish new open-access national pilot-scale facilities (www.pact.ac.uk). Partner institutions have contributed £2.5M.

9. In addition, the possible climate change impact of CO2 emissions from natural gas power generation has become of increasing importance with recent shale gas resource discoveries in the UK, as pointed out in evidence from the Prime Minister to a UK Parliament committee on 14 Jan 2014 [1]:
“My nervousness about being too frank about the future (carbon budget review) is simply down to the issue about carbon capture and storage and the role that gas will play in future.”
It is now accepted that most of UK CCS deployment, through new plants or retrofits, is likely to take place in the 2020s.

11. Despite uncertainties in reserve sizes, it is clear that if we burn all the fossil fuels, or even half of the remaining reserves, we will send the planet toward an ice-free state with sea level about 250 feet higher than today. It would take time for complete ice sheet disintegration to occur, but a chaotic situation would be created with changes occurring out of control of future generations.
Oil may already be about half depleted, i.e., the world may be close to peak oil production (implying that the IPCC estimate of reserves is closer to the truth than the EIA estimate). In either case, common sense suggests that the largest oil pools will be exploited and the carbon dioxide, which is emitted mainly from tailpipes, will end up in the atmosphere.
Gas, the least carbon intensive and cleanest burning fossil fuel, also surely will be exploited.
The obvious conclusion is that the only practical way to avoid climate catastrophe is to terminate emissions from the largest fossil fuel source: coal, the dirtiest of the fossil fuels.
If coal emissions are phased out between 2010 and 2030, global fossil fuel emissions would begin to fall rapidly as shown in the chart below.

“In our December 2008 report, we set out a range of scenarios to meet our 80% emissions reduction target in 2050. The common theme running through these scenarios was the need for early decarbonisation of the power sector, with the application of low-carbon electricity to transport and heat. We showed therefore that the carbon intensity of power generation should decline over time, whilst at the same time electricity demand could increase.”

I believe Peterhead represents the best site in the UK for a gas CCS project and I hope that our submission to the government will be successful.”
SSE chief executive Ian Marchant said: “If long-term targets for reducing emissions are to be met, CCS technology is going to have to apply as widely as possible. This means gas-fired power stations as well as coal.

Plans for the UK's first carbon capture project at the Longannet power station in Fife have been scrapped, the energy secretary has confirmed . Chris Huhne announced the failure to reach a "deal" with power companies to capture carbon dioxide emissions at the plant and pipe them under the sea. Mr Huhne blamed problems with the length of pipeline needed. But he said the government hoped other schemes could work, indicating interest at Peterhead in Aberdeenshire.
A £1bn project to tum a Scottish power station into a world leader in climate change technology has collapsed.

COSTS FOR CAPTURE PLANTS
IEAGHG (2006), CO2 capture as a factor in power station investment decisions, Report No. 2006/8, May 2006
Costs include compression to 110 bar but not storage and transport costs. These are very site-specific, but indicative aquifer storage costs of $10/tonne CO2 would increase electricity costs for natural gas plants by about 0.4 c/kWh and for coal plants by about 0.8 c/kWh
Coal price US$1.5/GJ, Natural Gas price US$ 3/GJ LHV basis

The main features of post-combustion technology for natural gas-fired CCGTs are summarised below:
•
Significant land footprint, with different estimates ranging between 9,000 and 40,000 square metres for the capture equipment - requirement for available space in retrofit of existing plant.
•
CO2 concentration in power station flue gases is typically 4% - so that large volumes of flue gases must be processed.
•
Uses an organic solvent (Monoethylamine, MEA, is most usual) which captures CO2 when in solution, using a scrubber tower in contact with the flue gases.
•
Incorporates circulation of the 'rich' solution of MEA with absorbed CO2 to a ' stripper‘ tower where it is reheated, leading to release of CO2 and production of ' lean' solvent solution for return to the scrubber.
•
MEA is degraded by contact with NO2 or SO2. These pollutants must therefore by reduced to low concentration level ( 1 to 20 ppm for NO2 and 1 to 10 ppm for SO2) in order to result in an acceptable life for the MEA . For gas-fired plant, only NOx levels generally require reduction.
•
Continual replacement of MEA is a significant operating cost.
•
As a result of the above two points, the power plant needs to be equipped with Selective Catalytic Reduction (SCR) of NOx in the process of retrofitting for CO2 capture, or during the design of new plants.
•
Addition of capture to a CCGT plant incurs an efficiency penalty of around 6.0- 8.2 percentage points, LHV (IEAGHG, 2004).

32. Gas CCS in perspective
Stages in all power plant clean-up technologies:
1.
‘It’s science fiction!’
2.
‘It’s impossibly expensive and complex!’
3.
‘It’s a major investment but necessary.’
4.
‘It’s obviously just a routine part of any power plant.’
Gas CCS is now somewhere between 2 and early stage 3 depending on location and we are working hard to get it to stage 4 as quickly as possible.
•
Gas turbine modifications or just take low CO2 concentration?
•
Pressurised oxyfuel capital costs vs post-com costs?
•
Hydrogen production and storage to give more constant CO2 flow for CCS and reduced CAPEX?
