The partners have agreed to explore the possibility of jointly developing a carbon capture and storage project at Forus Energi’s waste-to-energy plant at Forus outside Sandnes and Stavanger.
They will also explore and promote the application of carbon capture in the waste-to-energy sector in Norway
The Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) is non-exclusive and is valid for three years, after which the companies can opt to extend further.
