The CCS competition

The governments carbon capture and storage competition today took an interesting step with RWE purchasing Peel Energy - one of the three prequalifiers left in the competition (BP has pulled out).

This leaves Eon (Kingsnorth), RWE (Tilbury, but perhaps Blyth) and Iberdrola / Scottish and Southern (Longannet) - three massive, multi-national, companies.

The competition is now going to be fierce.

UK Carbon capture and storage 2011 competition

Details were announced today of the governments carbon capture and storage competition.

The 4 choices that they have chosen are of interest:

BP - and what might be the proposed gasification plant similar to the shelved version at Peterhead,
Scottish Power - and that's all we know,
Peel power - What I think is a new refuse derived fuel plant, which I've not heard of before now,
Eon - Kingsnorth.

My hope? Eon.
Which one will get it? I might digest this before I make that call.
