Technology
The plant uses the Shell CANSOLV absorption technology to extract CO2 from the flue gas of Unit 3. The capture system treats the entirety of the flue gas stream.
Costs
SaskPower have reported that the
Estimates for capital expenditure related to the new compression equipment, transport, and injection systems range from XXX to XXX
Performance
The plant has a rated capacity of
In a 2025 webinar, a SaskPower representative indicated that the plant was intentionally running at 80% capacity, with the reason given that...
