Technip Energies (PARIS:TE) has been awarded a Front-End Engineering Design (FEED) contract for the proposed new build Combined Cycle Gas Turbine (‘CCGT’) power station with Carbon Capture and Storage (CCS), at Uniper’s Connah’s Quay site; the Connah’s Quay Low Carbon Power project.

The facility would connect into nearby CO₂ transport and storage infrastructure as part of the Hynet Cluster, located in the North West of the UK, which is one of the most industrialised areas of the country with significant sources of CO₂ emissions. The project will support the UK CCS sector, contributing to the UK Government’s target of net zero emissions by 2050.

Uniper’s proposed CCGT with CCS project focuses on developing the first train of the power plant to reach commercial operation before the end of 2030 as per the requirements of the UK Government Track 1 expansion projects. If consented and developed, the new power station is expected to be developed in two phases, providing around 1.3 GW of low carbon power in total, ensuring continued reliable contribution to security of supply whilst supporting UK decarbonisation targets.

Technip Energies, supported by Balfour Beatty and GE Vernova, will provide FEED services for the integration of the CCGT with Carbon Capture. In this first phase, Technip Energies will leverage its unique and state-of-the-art carbon capture solution, Canopy by T.EN^TM, powered by Shell’s CANSOLV* CO₂ Capture System. The FEED will benefit from Technip Energies’ extensive experience in project execution and the award further confirms Technip Energies’ leadership in integration of CCGT with carbon capture.

Christophe Malaurie, SVP Decarbonization Solutions of Technip Energies, commented: “We are delighted to contribute to Uniper’s ambition to secure a reliable energy supply whilst accelerating the energy transition. By leveraging our unique carbon capture solution, Canopy by T.EN^TM, powered by Shell CANSOLV CO₂ Capture System, we are committed to making this project a success, playing an active role to deliver low carbon power generation at scale and support the UK energy transition. Our extensive experience in project design and execution will offer Uniper the expertise to achieve their objectives.”

Helen Rogers, Connah’s Quay Low Carbon Power Project Manager for Uniper said: “The proposed Connah’s Quay Low Carbon Power project would enable us to continue to reliably and efficiently generate electricity when it is needed, contributing to future security of supply as well as contributing to economic growth in the region. The award of the FEED contract competition represents a significant step and will result in one contractor being selected for EPC to build the plant.”
