Balfour Beatty wins £833m Teesside CCS construction contract
International infrastructure group Balfour Beatty has been awarded an £833m contract by Technip Energies to act as the construction partner for Net Zero Teesside Power in north-east England.
The onshore power, capture and compression project is set to be one of the world’s first gas-fired power stations with carbon capture and storage.
Balfour Beatty will work alongside Technip Energies and GE Vernova – with the support of technology partner Shell Catalysts & Technologies – to construct the large-scale combined cycle gas-powered generation plant for Net Zero Teesside Power, which is a joint venture between BP and Equinor. gasworld reported on the partners’ involvement in December 2024.
It will also build the post-combustion carbon capture system, which is expected to capture up to two million tonnes of carbon dioxide per year, before it is compressed and fed directly into the offshore pipeline to be stored under the North Sea by the Northern Endurance Partnership (a joint venture between BP, Equinor and Total Energies).
