BECCS Stockholm is set to become one of the world’s largest plants for capturing and permanently storing biogenic carbon dioxide. The new contract covers groundworks, site preparation, concrete works for the BECCS building itself, and construction of a new quay.

Stockholm Exergi’s plant will be built in the Energihamnen port area adjacent to the existing Värtaverket biomass power plant, which already produces sustainable heat and electricity from forestry and sawmill residues. The BECCS facility will annually capture and store around 800,000 tons of CO2 from the flue gases generated at Värtaverket.

Work on the new BECCS facility starts immediately, with completion scheduled for 2028. The contract adds to an earlier agreement between the parties for initial preparation work.
