Whitetail Clean Energy<\/a> has appointed Atkins<\/a> to support the development and implementation of its proposed 300-megawatts NET Power station at Wilton International, Teesside<\/h2>\n

The proposed 300mw NET Power station at Wilton International will capture and store its carbon emissions in secure geological formations deep under the North Sea.<\/p>\n

The appointment will progress Whitetail to be operational as soon as 2025.<\/p>\n

Atkins will work with Whitetail project proposers \u2013 US clean energy innovation firm 8 Rivers Capital, acting through its UK affiliate, Zero Degrees Whitetail Development Ltd., and Sembcorp Energy UK (SEUK), along with NET Power, LLC, to develop the UK\u2019s first net zero emissions<\/a> power station at the Wilton International site on Teesside.<\/p>\n

For the contract, Atkins will support Whitetail as the owner\u2019s engineer through the design phases to financial close.<\/p>\n

Atkins will also provide an on-site presence to monitor, supervise and manage the construction and commissioning phase.<\/p>\n

The proposed location at Sembcorp Energy UK\u2019s site at Wilton International offers convenient port and pipeline access, meaning that all Whitetail\u2019s captured CO2 can be easily transported to UK sequestration sites.<\/p>\n

\u2018A first-of-a-kind carbon capture technology\u2019<\/h3>\n

Cam Hosie, chief executive of 8 Rivers Capital, said: \u201cThe appointment of Atkins to the owner\u2019s engineer role represents another key step towards Whitetail becoming a reality and clearly marks the start of an acceleration in the deployment of NET Power plants in the United Kingdom.<\/p>\n

\u201cWhitetail will provide dispatchable clean power alongside renewable energy<\/a> to help the UK meet its collective climate goals and we are delighted that Atkins will be working with us on this innovative infrastructure project of national significance.\u201d<\/p>\n

Andy Koss, CEO of UK & Middle East, Sembcorp Industries, commented: \u201cWhitetail Clean Energy represents a first-of-a-kind carbon capture technology and we are pleased that Atkins will be helping us bring this to Teesside.<\/p>\n

\u201cWhitetail embodies our commitment to reducing the carbon emissions<\/a> of our power generation assets at Wilton International and to supporting the development of sustainable solutions both in the region and for the UK.\u201d<\/p>\n

Chris Ball, managing director \u2013 nuclear and power, Atkins EMEA, added: \u201cWith a long-standing history in the region, this project will bring together our local expertise with a global capability in sustainable best practice to deliver engineering net zero.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe look forward to working closely with Whitetail Clean Energy to support the development of this new innovative technology and deliver a route to clean and affordable power for the Teesside region.\u201d<\/p>\n
