FY 2021-22 · 2021-09-01
Summary
Announced in December 2019, Capital Power is progressing its plans to construct a carbon capture and conversion facility known as the Genesee Carbon Conversion Centre (GC3) (the Project). GC3 will use innovative technology developed by Carbon Corp to capture carbon dioxide (CO2) from the flue gas at Genesee Unit 3 and through an electrolysis process, create high-quality carbon nanotubes (CNTs). This project requires to undertake an extensive FEED study which is Carbon Corps team's central task.

Description (French)
Annoncé en décembre 2019, Capital Power progresse dans son projet de construction d'une installation de capture et de conversion du carbone connue sous le nom de Centre de conversion du carbone de Genesee (GC3) (le projet). GC3 utilisera une technologie innovante développée par Carbon Corp. pour capturer le dioxyde de carbone (CO2) provenant des gaz de combustion de l'unité 3 de Genesee et, grâce à un processus d'électrolyse, créer des nanotubes de carbone de haute qualité. Ce projet nécessite d'entreprendre une étude d'ingénierie de base et de conception (FEED) approfondie qui est la tâche primordiale de l'équipe de Carbon Corp.
