Australian energy provider AGL Energy has recruited Air Liquide for CCS in Adelaide

Air Liquide and AGL Energy have announced its joint commitment to recover carbon dioxide (CO2) at its Torrens Island power station site in Adelaide.

A state-of-the-art CO2 recovery plant will be built and operated by Air Liquide at the AGL Torrens site to capture and purify up to 50,000 tonnes of CO2 emissions from the power station’s exhaust per year. This is equivalent to removing approximately 16,000 vehicles from the road every year.

Following recovery from the AGL Torrens site, the CO2 will be used in the merchant CO2 market in South Australia, which is currently supplied predominantly from Victoria.
