Carbon Centric and Fidelis New Energy enter into letter of intent for onshore CO2 storage

On May 15^th 2023, Fidelis announced the Norne Carbon Storage Hub, an onshore CO₂ storage network in Denmark. Norne provides CO₂ emitters the option to access a safe and cost-effective decarbonization solution designed to help Denmark achieve its ambitious 2030 and 2050 climate goals. Norne is scheduled to commence CO₂ storage operations in 2027 for Carbon Centric and aims to store more than 20 million tonnes per year by 2030. Carbon Centric joins a growing list of Norne customers seeking carbon storage that is safe, ESG-friendly, and economically advantaged.

Since 2021, Carbon Centric has been working to provide low-cost carbon capture solutions for existing waste and biomass combined heating and power plants. Carbon Centric offers to build, own, and operate carbon capture plants for small and medium-sized waste and biomass facilities, providing the opportunity for asset owners to reduce their emissions without the high investment cost. Carbon Centric also offers affordable and turnkey carbon capture plants for the same market, taking care of everything from Front End Engineering Design, construction, installation, operations, and maintenance.

"At Carbon Centric we have been looking for a company like Fidelis that will be able to ensure cost-effective large scale carbon storage for our clients. Norne is visionary with its ability to scale up quickly and will allow us to build out our businesses together", said Kenneth Juul, Carbon Centric Chief Commercial Officer and Co-Founder. "With Denmark's foresight of moving quickly toward onshore carbon storage and with Fidelis' plans and prior three years of work on the Norne vision to provide carbon storage solutions on both Jutland and Zealand, we see a great opportunity to expand our activities in Denmark. Our ambition is to provide affordable full value chain CCUS solutions for our clients and make large-scale CO₂ reductions by helping small to medium sized facilities decarbonize. With this partnership we are well positioned to reach our ambitious CO₂ storage targets and thereby help Denmark and the EU decarbonize", Kenneth Juul concluded.

"We are thrilled to be able to provide a safe and cost-effective decarbonization solution for Carbon Centric and their clients. Carbon Centric provides turnkey carbon mitigation services for small and medium sized emitters and allows these companies to implement climate change solutions now. We are proud to be able to work collaboratively with Carbon Centric in delivering these services to their clients," said Ulrik Weuder, Managing Director of Fidelis New Energy Europe. "Norne enables the safe and environmentally friendly decarbonization of key segments of the Danish and European economies while ensuring industries remain globally competitive due to the low overall costs of CO₂ mitigation," added Bengt Jarlsjo, Co-Founder, President, and Chief Operating Officer of Fidelis. "This announcement with Carbon Centric is an important milestone for the decarbonization of Denmark and Northern Europe. We look forward to our continued collaboration with Carbon Centric."
