Boost for Scottish Cluster as Grangemouth targets 1mn t/yr carbon capture by 2027

The initiative would cover Ineos’ entire Grangemouth site, one of the UK’s largest industrial complexes, and enable the capture and storage of approximately 1mn t/yr of CO2 by 2027, with the scope to capture further significant volumes beyond this date, according to UK-based Ineos. “We acknowledge that we are operating a carbon dioxide intensive industry and we have a significant role to play in helping Scotland reach its net carbon zero target by 2045” Gardner,
