Oslo, Norway - 17 October 2022


Today, CO2 Capsol announces that the first CapsolGo™, a mobile demonstration
unit utilising the company’s carbon capture technology, started operation on
flue gas at Öresundskraft´s Energy-from-Waste (EfW) plant Filbornaverket in
Helsingborg, Sweden.

The engineering, construction and commissioning of the CapsolGo™ unit, which has
been delivered on time and on budget, is a result of diligent teamwork by all
parties, including Captimise who will act as the independent testing party
during the demonstration campaign, verifying the performance of CO2 Capsol´s HPC
(Hot Potassium Carbonate) carbon capture technology on the Filbornaverket flue
gas. The campaign will be delivered as a service with a flexible testing and
validation program, helping to accelerate the decision processes towards a
full-scale carbon capture plant with a potential to reduce emissions by
approximately 210,000 tonnes of CO2 per year.

“With the CapsolGo™ unit now operational at Filbornaverket we are looking
forward to presenting an easy, safe and energy-efficient way of removing carbon
from Öresundskraft´s Energy-from-Waste plant, aligning with Öresundskraft´s
long-term strategy for sustainable energy production and negative carbon dioxide
emissions from their combined heat and power production, and to continue to work
together with the team at Öresundskraft making this demonstration project a
success,” says Philipp Staggat, Business Development Manager for CapsolGo™.

CapsolGo™ offers industrial emitters an easy and affordable way to test CO2
Capsol’s carbon capture technology on the client´s specific flue gas and
processes, providing valuable data and information on the effectiveness,
flexibility, and safety before taking an investment decision.

The demonstration project has received funding from the Swedish Energy Agency.
