Options for transporting CO2 from coal fired power plants Case Denmark

AbstractIn Denmark, Vattenfall has as decision support investigated different cases to build a CCS demonstration plant. The study described here, looks into possible transportation options related to different CO2 storage alternatives considered for two studied power plant locations. Based on this study and other decision material, a choice has been made for location and planning of the first CCS demonstration chain in Denmark, including capture, transport and storage.Studied alternative storage locations were: •aquifer on the northern shore of the Danish island Sjælland•two hub locations on the Norwegian west coast•aquifer offshore the Danish west coast•two onshore aquifers at Jutland For these possible storage alternatives, the following transportation options were considered: •pipeline onshore•pipeline offshore•ship, liquefied/refrigerated CO2•ship, compressed CO2•barge, liquefied/refrigerated CO2•barge, compressed CO
