Reductions of CO2 What ECCP 1 gave

The ECCP 1 work identified a number of measures


which could to be taken.
Without agreement among all, it was concluded that
almost 30 % reduction could be reached at a cost
below 50 /ton CO2

Reductions of CO2 What we have learned (2)


Now, after 4 years we have learned a few things:
We will remain to be dependant on fossil fuels for a long time
Change from coal to gas has not happened
Due to high gas prices and lack of long time confidence
Building new efficient coal - yes
Several large plants have been built and at least seven large units
under way.
Wind power has severe limitations
Cost lies about 70 90 /MWh
When capacity (MWs) exceeds about 10 % in an area, the system
cannot take any more, need for extra transmission and reserve
power
39 000 MW wind leads to that conventional power can only be
reduced 2 500 MW according to one study

Vattenfall AB

Reductions of CO2 What we have learned (3)


Biofuels are used, especially in the heat sector.
All district heat and CHP is using biofuel in Sweden
today (140 TWh fuel)
To maintain competitiveness for bio fuels, it is
necessary to keep CO2 tax in parallel with the trading
system, at a level of 75 /ton of CO2
Biofuel usage has reached its limit in Sweden. 45 %
of the fuel is imported from Russia, Baltic states and
Canada !
CHP is built wherever possible
Few opportunities left

Vattenfall AB

Reductions of CO2 What we have learned (3)


Carbon Capture and Storage CCS has gained much recognition
and development is going fast.
Many countries have recognized CCS as a powerful tool and have
introduced it in their plans to fulfill their environmental goals
The USA, UK, Australia, France, Germany among many others
CCS does cost 20 25 /ton CO2
ECCP 1 assumed 50 /ton of CO2
Storage capacity exceeds the remaining fossil fuel reserves
Storage in geological formations is available all over the world, all
over Europe, off-shore and on-shore
CCS will not be available in a large scale until 2015 2020
ECCP 1 assumed before 2010
CCS can probably reach half of the mitigation necessary to reach our
long term goals of 60 80 % of reduction until 2050

The CO2 free Power Plant principle


The principle of capture and storage
of the CO2 under ground

The CO2 can be captured either


from the flue gases, or is the
carbon captured from the fuel
before the combustion process.
The CO2 is cleaned and
compressed. Then it is pumped
as a liquid down into a porous
rock formation for permanent
storage.

Pre-combustion capture
This technology needs development. Might be
competitive. The gasifier exists in demo plants.
The turbine is in the lab stage.

O2/CO2 combustion is the preferred option at present

Conclusions from analysis - Reduction of CO2


Carbon capture and storage from Coal fired Power plants can
be done at a cost close to 20 /ton CO2
Capture at about 15 /ton of CO2
Storage at lower than 2 /ton CO2
Transport depending on distance and volume, but 5 /ton of CO2 for
large plants on shore

More than enough storage capacity on shore and off shore is at


hand in saline aquifers
Technology choice is not yet made. Oxyfuel is preferred
technology in Vattenfall at present
The commercial choice stands between Gasfired CC without
CCS, taking the penalty of CO2 emission, and Coal fired
plants with CCS

Taking responsibilty
Lord Oxburgh, former chairman of Shell Transport and Trading:

"CCS is absolutely essential if the world is serious about


limiting greenhouse gas emissions
The new report from the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change
(IPCC) concludes:

CCS could achieve more than half of the emissions


reductions necessary to mitigate climate change up to 2100
Vattenfall agrees with this. We also believe CCS is needed to
fulfill our climate goals

The Climate Change

The Climate Change problem is for real


EU ministers have agreed on, that we have to reduce
the emissions to maintain a reasonable CO2
concentration in atmosphere
15 30 % until 2030
60 80 % until 2050

A radical solution is necessary. We cannot wait

Why Oxy-fuel technology ?
We work with all three (four)
technologies, but:

Vattenfall AB

Oxyfuel technology is the


technology giving lowest costs
at present
It is suitable for coal and have
relatively little development
work left
We can build on our good
experience with present PF
technology

Analysis of some
technology options

Vattenfall AB

41

CO2 Free Power Plant: Technology

Choice

The ultimate technology choice is not clear yet. Several technologies will probably
be applied to different commercial situations.

Post combustion capture.


At present the most expensive option but commercially available in large size.
Can be applied to existing plants.
Needs no demo. Optimization of existing options needed.

Pre combustion capture.


The most complicated technology. IGCC demos have not been successful
Produces hydrogen as integrated intermediate fuel for the power process, from coal or gas.
Development need for the gas turbine run on hydrogen Lab tests + pilot + demo

CO2/O2 (oxy-fuel) capture


The most preferred option at present
Technology straight forward and builds on the modern supercritical coal fired boilers
Tests in technical scale positive. Needs pilot plant and demo plant

Chemical Looping technology is the most interesting long term option.


Lab experiments very encouraging.

The Problem
Fossil fuels are needed
Analysis show that fossil fuels will remain as major energy source
in 2030 ( 85 %)

The top priority is to introduce renewable energy sources in


the energy system
All analysis show that renewable energy sources will play a large
role, but not large enough and soon enough

In several countries nuclear power is decommissioned


No renewable energy source not known today can play a
significant role in 25 years from now, i.e. 2030

Vattenfall AB

Emissions from fossil fuels must be reduced
