SNR Denton has advised the Department of Energy and Climate Change on its Carbon Capture and Storage (CCS) Commercialisation Programme Competition, which today announced two preferred bidders from an original field of eight. They are the Peterhead Project in Aberdeenshire, Scotland, and the White Rose Project in Yorkshire, England.

CCS technology, if developed at scale, could allow the safe removal and storage of harmful carbon emissions from coal and gas fired power stations and heavy industry, to help the UK meet its climate change targets.

Co-chair of SNR Denton’s global Energy, Transport & Infrastructure practice, Christopher McGee-Osborne, said; “Finding viable business solutions is a key component of this complex programme. Commercialising CCS will help to ensure the viability and global deployment of this technology in the future. We are delighted to be involved.”

The SNR Denton team was led by Christopher McGee-Osborne and included Lucille De Silva, Catherine Bingham, Zara Skelton, Martin Watt, Mark Bassett, Nisha Darbari, Danielle Kent, Claire Chester, Rebecca Andersen and Alice England.
