Canada’s Pieridae Energy plans CCS in Alberta
Canadian LNG developer Pieridae Energy, which has substantial natural gas assets in the foothills of Alberta acquired in 2019 from Shell Canada, said May 27 it is planning what would be the largest carbon capture and sequestration (CCS) project in Canada.
Located northwest of Calgary, the Caroline Carbon Capture Power Complex (CCCPC) will be a combination of large-scale CCS and blue-power production. It would capture up to 3mn mt of CO
2 annually – equal to the expected emissions from Pieridae’s planned 10mn mt/yr Goldboro LNG terminal in Nova Scotia – and sequester it in the Caroline field’s depleted natural gas reservoirs.
