Statutory consultation

2 July 2024 - 12 August 2024

We held a statutory consultation on our proposed carbon capture project from Tuesday 2 July to 11:59pm on Monday 12 August 2024.

This formal statutory consultation presented our updated detailed proposals, potential significant impacts and the mitigation measures to be employed to avoid, reduce and/or off-set any potential impacts.

We will have regard to all comments received during the statutory consultation. All feedback is important to us and will help to influence the design of the project. We will set out a summary of the responses in a Consultation Report, which will detail how we have had regard to feedback and how feedback has influenced the proposals. 

Following this formal round of consultation, we expect to submit our application to PEDW in summer 2024 accompanied by an Environmental Statement. Subject to planning permission, we intend to commence construction of the proposed development in 2025 with commercial operation by 2029.

For a limited time, this website will continue to host our consultation documents and key information about our statutory consultation.

Consultation events

We held a series of in-person events and webinars to provide you with additional opportunities to speak to the project team, ask any questions you may have, and give feedback on our plans.
