For completeness, the status of the three other remaining EEPR funded projects in Europe is mentioned here. However, no clear published material concerning the monitoringMeasurement and surveillance activities necessary for ensuring safe and reliable operation of a CGS project (storage integrity), and for estimating emission reductions plans for the industrial-scale application of CO2Carbon dioxide storage(CO2) A process for retaining captured CO2, so that it does not reach the atmosphere for these projects sites is available to the knowledge of the authors. The PGE Bełchatów project in Poland has been suspended and recently announced as terminated. About 1.7 million tonnes of CO2Carbon dioxide was planned to be captured from a new CCSCarbon dioxide Capture and Storage-ready block of a lignite-fired power plant in central Poland, transported via a 140 km pipeline and stored in an onshore saline aquiferAn underground layer of fluid-bearing permeable rock or unconsolidated materials (gravel, sand, or silt) with significant permeability to allow flow of Jurassic sandstones at a depth of about 1 km. The project stopped just before the full characterization and baseline monitoringMeasurement and surveillance activities necessary for ensuring safe and reliable operation of a CGS project (storage integrity), and for estimating emission reductions of the selected site. No detailed description of the monitoringMeasurement and surveillance activities necessary for ensuring safe and reliable operation of a CGS project (storage integrity), and for estimating emission reductions plan for the selected site was published. More information can be found at the website of the PGE Bełchatów project (2013).
The Compostilla project in Spain includes at this moment no industrial-scale application of either storage(CO2) A process for retaining captured CO2, so that it does not reach the atmosphere or monitoringMeasurement and surveillance activities necessary for ensuring safe and reliable operation of a CGS project (storage integrity), and for estimating emission reductions, but the ongoing R&D work includes a storage(CO2) A process for retaining captured CO2, so that it does not reach the atmosphere pilot (planned injectionThe process of using pressure to force fluids down wells of about 20,000 tonnes of CO2Carbon dioxide) with a monitoringMeasurement and surveillance activities necessary for ensuring safe and reliable operation of a CGS project (storage integrity), and for estimating emission reductions network within (a part of) an area where the demo storage(CO2) A process for retaining captured CO2, so that it does not reach the atmosphere operations are planned (after the Global CCSCarbon dioxide Capture and Storage Institute website and Dios, 2013). No detailed description of the monitoringMeasurement and surveillance activities necessary for ensuring safe and reliable operation of a CGS project (storage integrity), and for estimating emission reductions plan for the industrial-scale application of CO2Carbon dioxide storage(CO2) A process for retaining captured CO2, so that it does not reach the atmosphere can be found currently.
The Italian CCSCarbon dioxide Capture and Storage project of Porto Tolle by Enel, of similar magnitude as these mentioned above, includes offshore storage(CO2) A process for retaining captured CO2, so that it does not reach the atmosphere and no detailed description of the monitoringMeasurement and surveillance activities necessary for ensuring safe and reliable operation of a CGS project (storage integrity), and for estimating emission reductions plan for the industrial-scale application of CO2Carbon dioxide storage(CO2) A process for retaining captured CO2, so that it does not reach the atmosphere can be found currently.
