AFRY awarded engineering contract for major carbon-capture project in the U.K.

AFRY AB has been awarded an engineering assignment by greentech firm Kanadevia Inova for what’s described as the U.K.’s first full-scale carbon-capture facility in the waste-to-energy sector. The project is being developed by Encyclis, a major U.K. energy-from-waste operator, in partnership with Kanadevia Inova, marking a key step toward decarbonizing municipal waste power generation.

What do you think is the biggest hurdle to scaling carbon capture at U.K. waste-to-energy plants—technology maturity, CO2 transport and storage infrastructure, permitting, or financing?
