Hazlewood CCS Project

From MoxyWiki

In July 2009, it was announced by the owner of Hazelwood, International Power Australia, that following a comprehensive commissioning program, the Hazelwood pilot carbon capture plant was capturing and sequestering CO₂. It is the biggest plant yet installed at an Australian power station and is located in the Latrobe Valley in Victoria. The $10 million pilot project is designed to initially capture up to 25 tonnes of carbon dioxide (CO₂) per day from one of the power station’s generating units. The plant has the potential to eventually capture up to 50 tonnes a day. ^[1].

This project is partly funded by the Australian Government under Low Emissions Technology DemonstrationFund (LETDF) and the Victorian Government under Energy Technology Innovation Strategy Large Scale Demonstration Plant (ETIS LSDP).
