ABB: solutions for Northern Lights project

(CercleFinance.com) - ABB has announced that it has been selected by Aker Solutions, a specialist in sustainable energy solutions, to supply the main electrical, automation and safety systems for the Northern Lights project in Norway.


A joint venture between Equinor, Shell and TotalEnergies, Northern Lights is the first industrial carbon capture and storage project to develop an open and flexible infrastructure to safely store CO2 from industries across Europe.

The first phase of the project is expected to be completed by mid-2024 and will have the capacity to permanently store up to 1.5 million tonnes (Mt) of CO2 per year, aiming to increase it to over 5 Mt per year in a second phase.

ABB says its solutions will be integrated with the Northern Lights project to enable remote operation of a new carbon capture terminal and ensure that the facility runs smoothly.
