Statement

ScottishPower began developing the Longannet Carbon Capture and Storage project in 2007 in response to the UK Government’s competition to demonstrate full-scale CCS on power generation in the UK. In the summer of 2009, the ScottishPower CCS Consortium, comprising ScottishPower, National Grid and Shell was formed to further develop this project, which could be one of the world’s first full-scale CCS demonstration plants. In March 2010, the Consortium began an extensive Front End, Engineering and Design (FEED) study to assess what exactly would be required from an engineering, commercial and regulatory, perspective in order to progress the CCS project through to construction. At the heart of that year long study was a commitment by both the Government and the Consortium to undertake one of the most extensive knowledge transfer programmes ever undertaken on CCS. On the 19 October 2011, the UK Government announced that negotiations with the ScottishPower CCS Consortium have concluded. The decision has been taken not to proceed with the first CCS demonstration project at Longannet Power station in Scotland. Despite all parties working extremely hard on the project at Longannet, a satisfactory deal for the UK’s first CCS demonstration project could not be met on this particular project at this particular time. The study has yielded invaluable knowledge in areas such as cost, design, end-to-end CCS chain operation, health and safety, environment, consent and permitting, risk management, and lessons learnt.
