– CCS System Modelling

– CCS & Hydrogen

• CCS roll out in the UK – the ETI view


What is the ETI?

• The Energy Technologies Institute

(ETI) is a public-private partnership

between global industries and UK

Government

Delivering...

• Targeted development, demonstration

and de-risking of new technologies for

affordable and secure energy

• Shared risk


What we do...

System level strategic planning

Technology development & demonstration

Delivering knowledge &

innovation


ESME – ETI’s system design tool ....integrating power, heat, transport and infrastructure

providing national / regional system designs

ESME example outputs


Getting the UK energy system to 2050Incremental 2010-2050 cost of delivering national energy

CCS is high value as it creates options

ETI energy system modelling points to ‘energy system-wide’ value of

CCS extending beyond low carbon electricity generation

‘Negative

emissions’

Enables continued use of fossil

fuels where very expensive to

replace

Competitive low

ETI CCS Programme


Storage - Appraisal

• ETI has delivered, through a £4m investment in the UK

Storage Appraisal Project:

– Realistic, defensible & fully auditable assessment

of potential CO2 storage capacity in the UK

– Overall estimate of capacity

– Unique & comprehensive GIS storage database

• Capacity

• Security of storage

• Economics

• Underlying data

• Database licensed to The Crown Estate and British

Geological Survey

– Launched in 2013, as CO2Stored

– Available free to academia and by subscription to

industry


Storage – Measurement Monitoring

and Verification

• £5M MMV Project launched in April 2014

– Project will develop and demonstrate MMV system for marine and shallow

subsurface monitoring

– Aim to have MMV system proven and ready for application by DECC

commercialisation projects in 2018

– Project led by Fugro GEOS, with Sonardyne, National Oceanographic Centre, BGS,

Plymouth Marine Labs and University of Southampton


CCS Storage site development£2m investment from ETI kick-starting National Grid programme to

appraise southern North sea aquifer

• ETI supporting National Grid programme to appraise

Southern North Sea aquifer

• Storage development and qualification is the longest lead

time item in the CCS chain and the greatest uncertainty

• Drilling successfully completed in August 2013

• Results confirmed quality and capacity of the store

• ETI working with National Grid of analysis of results

• Site will be used for White Rose demonstration project

Next Generation Capture - Gas

• The technology:

– Post-combustion CO2 capture by solid

adsorption

• Novel technology based on rotating bed

• Project led by Inventys (Canadian SME),

supported by UK engineering

– Projected reduction of LCOE by 13%

– 90 - 99% capture readily achievable

• The project:

– Laboratory trials in Vancouver completed in

2013

– Plans to build 5 MWe UK demonstration plant

2014 - 2017

– Design package for future full-scale

demonstrator

• ETI opened up £20m competition for

‘demonstration’ in 2013

– final selection mid 2014


Next Generation Capture - Coal

• The technology:

– CO2 capture by physical separation

• pre-combustion flowsheet

• Technology developed and project led by Costain

– Projected reduction of LCOE by 6.5%

– 95% capture readily achievable

• The project:

– £3.5M FEED study completed

– Aim to build 17 MWe pilot plant

– Design package for future full-scale demonstrator

• Status:

– Currently on hold pending availability of test site


CCS System Design and Operation:

System Modelling Toolkit Project

• Toolkit based on PSE’s gPROMS platform

– Involvement of CCS domain experts

(CO2Deepstore, E.ON, EDF & Rolls-Royce)

– Comprehensive toolkit enabling full-chain

models of CCS systems

• Power generation (coal, gas)

• Capture

• Compression

• Pipeline

• Wellhead & injection

– Steady state and dynamic simulation

– State of the art physical properties engine

(gSAFT)

• Commercial product (gCCS) to be launched by

PSE in summer 2014

Hydrogen - a clean energy source

Hydrogen Storage & Flexible Turbines

• Use of salt caverns to store hydrogen

• Allows intermittent use of clean energy

for power, or other users

• Alternatives to fossil fuels examined

• Cost effective vs alternatives

High Hydrogen

• Understanding limits on safe use of

hydrogen-rich fuels in power

production by GTs and engines.

• Laboratory test work completed

• Large scale test rig in Buxton

recently commissioned
