Since 1 March 2014, the geological storage of carbon dioxide has been permitted in Sweden, and SGU is the supervisory agency. As the agency responsible for matters concerning rock, soil and groundwater in Sweden, we have knowledge of the bedrock that could come into consideration for storing carbon dioxide in Sweden.
Conditions for carbon dioxide storage in sedimentary rocks in Sweden mainly exist in south-western Skåne and the southern Baltic Sea. A research project is currently examining the possibilities for storing carbon dioxide in fissure-rich crystalline bedrock.
To reduce the risks, it is important for there to be continuous monitoring of how the stored carbon dioxide behaves in storage. Since 1 March 2014, the geological storage of carbon dioxide has been permitted in Sweden, and SGU is the supervisory agency.
The Swedish Energy Agency has been tasked with being the National Centre for CCS in Sweden. This entails planning, coordination and promotion of CCS throughout the country. The Swedish Energy Agency will carry out its work in dialogue with industries, governmental authorities and the Government Offices of Sweden.
Previously known as Fortum Värme AB, Stockholm Exergi is an energy utility that operates in the Swedish capital and is jointly owned by the City of Stockholm and Finland-headed energy major Fortum Oyj. Last Friday we decided to close our last coal boiler after this winter and today we inaugurate the BECCS test facility.
The carbon dioxide can be transported to its permanent storage site or to an intermediate storage site through pipeline, by ship, train or tanker. The carbon dioxide is often stored intermediately on its way to the permanent storage site. Common intermediate storage sites are containers near the capture site or in a port.
