• Power generation : lignite / brown coal

• 110 MW production unit• Retrofit (to a generating

unit recently refurbished)• CO2 capture capacity: 1

million tonnes per annum• Post-combustion capture• Capture Method:

Absorption chemical solvent-based process (Amine), Shell Global Cansolv technology

• Capture Start Date: 2014

Boundary Dam, Saskatchewan, Canada

The global significance of Boundary Dam

Delivers world’s first example of CCS at full scale on a power station

Demonstrates that CCS is a proven technology

Builds public confidence and understanding

Confirms the technology is mature proven and operational

Shows that policy and regulatory support forthcomingSo why should the launch inspire action

in Europe?

134 GW coal capacity added in 2013 – at least double that of any other fuel.– IEA 2014

Reality is that fossil fuels will continue to dominate energy use

Fossil fuels with CCS must be a part of the climate change solution.

New Policies Scenario: assumes current climate change policy commitments and pledges by Government are fully implemented.

We must reconcile reality with the climate challenge

‘Business as usual’ leads to rising average global temperature.

“A 4°C world is so different from the current one that it comes with high uncertainty and new risks that threaten our ability to anticipate and plan for future adaptation needs.”

World Bank Group President Jim Yong Kim, November 2012

Renewable technologies are not the sole answer

“We now need to shift to a higher gear in developing CCS into a true energy option, to be deployed at large scale. It is not enough to only see CCS in long term energy scenarios as a solution that happens some time in the distant future. Instead we must get to its true development right here and now .”

Maria van der Hoeven Executive Director IEAForeword to IEA CCS Technology Roadmap 2013

No CCS = No 2°C

Importance of CCS

acknowledged

Wide adoption of CCS part of the scenario that achieves 450 ppm atmospheric stabilization

level for CO2

World Energy Council

Availability of CCS is critical for producing 450 ppm

Energy Modeling Forum 27 Study

CCS is an important technology in the long run…deployment to drive

down costs is desirable

UK Committee on Climate Change

Commercial demonstration of CCS essential for deployment in the 2030 timeframe

European Commission

CCS to be cost effective when transformational technologies emerge

US Climate Action Report 2014

Many energy and climate researchers

believe that CCS is vital to avoiding a climate

catastrophe

Wired Magazine March 2013

We intend to promote the use of low carbon technologies

(renewable energies, nuclear in the countries which opt to

use it, and carbon capture and storage)

A shared vision has delivered CCS at Boundary Dam

TECHNOLOGY Proven technology Operational projects in power critical to perception  

UNDERSTANDING AND ACCEPTANCE Awareness and

understanding of CCS through public engagement

Education has built understanding

POLICY AND REGULATION CCS has been given

policy and regulatory support

CCS must be treated equivalently to other low-carbon technologies.

Business case for

CCS

Boundary Dam demonstrates all three: supporting business case for CCS

International leadership: turning vision into reality

A celebration and a call to action!

Congratulations to everyone involved in a world first. Landmark achievement for SaskPower, the Government and

people of Saskatchewan and the Government of Canada. A huge credit to their expertise across the whole CCS chain. Lessons learned help progress CCS projects internationally.

We must move the agenda on: CCS on power is a now a reality with US projects to follow.

OUR CALL FOR ACTION IS TO ACCELERATE CCS AROUND THE

WORLD

Can Europe step up?
