VTT develops combustion technologies for biomass – aims at negative emissions
VTT is seeking a carbon capture technology for Finnish power and heat production plants. The first pilots were implemented, using wood pellets, at VTT’s Bioruukki and the results are promising. Finland is well on its way to achieving the 2020 climate goals, but it is already clear that the goals for 2050 are impossible to attain without major changes in energy production and other industries. VTT has calculated that Carbon Capture and Storage (CCS) could cost-effectively cover one third of Finland's share of reductions in greenhouse gas emissions by 2050. More than 80 per cent of
