Babcock & Wilcox (B&W) will carry out the front-end engineering and design (FEED) work for Varme Energy’s waste-to-energy plant with carbon capture and sequestration (CCS) in Alberta, Canada.
Set to be operational in 2027, with a final investment decision planned for early 2025, the project will process up to 200,000 tonnes of waste per year. Varme Energy believes the plant to be the first waste-to-energy with carbon capture and sequestration facility in Canada.
Under terms of the FEED contract, B&W will conduct engineering and design for the plant’s waste-fired boiler, emissions control technologies and post-combustion carbon capture system.
Jimmy Morgan, Chief Operating Officer at B&W, described the initial engineering contract as an important first step in what he anticipates being an exciting, large-scale municipal waste-to-energy with sequestration project.
