CCS world projects: Zerogen
ZeroGen is a joint State Government/coal industry project to build a commercial scale 530MW (gross) IGCC plant with up to 90 per cent CCS. Japan’s Mitsubishi Corporation and Mitsubishi Heavy Industries (MHI) have joined the project, with MHI to provide ZeroGen with both the IGCC and carbon capture technologies. Prefeasibility and feasibility studies are expected to be completed by September 2011 enabling construction to commence in 2012 and commissioning late 2015.
