Injection of CO2 Started at ON Power’s Geothermal Plant in Nesjavellir, Iceland

Carbfix’s new pilot CCS plant at ON Power’s geothermal plant at Nesjavellir, Iceland is now operational and injection of CO2 and H2S has started at the site. This is a result of significant research and development carried out within the EU Horizon2020 project GECO to further improve the Carbfix technology.

The captured CO2 is injected into the basaltic subsurface at the Nesjavellir injection site where it reacts with the bedrock and forms stable carbonate minerals. A full-scale CCS-plant, based on this pilot, is scheduled to become operational at Nesjavellir by 2030, reducing the plant’s CO2 and H2S footprint to near zero.
