SSE Plc and Equinor ASA will jointly develop a new clean gas-fired power station with carbon capture technology in Scotland.
Carbon capture and storage technology, which removes the pollutants created by burning fossil fuels, could help secure a long-term role for gas in electricity generation. Overall, the U.K. wants to capture 10 million tons of carbon dioxide a year by 2030. So far the technology has not been delivered anywhere at in the world successfully at a competitive price.
