As a world pioneer in power sector carbon capture and storage, Estevan is an ideal location for one of the initial Canadian NET Power deployments. NET Power’s Allam-Fetvedt cycle technology combusts natural gas with oxygen, as opposed to air, and uses supercritical carbon dioxide (CO2) as a working fluid to drive the turbine and produce zero-emission electricity. This cycle can hit the same efficiency of a traditional power plant while capturing all of its carbon dioxide (CO2) and eliminating all air pollutants. As the inventor of the Allam-Fetvedt cycle, 8 Rivers is ideally situated to partner with the city to hit their energy and economic goals.
