- Net-Zero Teesside (NZT) Power is expected to be one of the first gas-fired power stations of its kind - fully integrated with carbon capture technology.
- Consortium and technology selection marks an important next step towards the proposed development of bp’s NZT Power project in the UK, aiming to capture up to 2 million tonnes of CO2 per year.
- Project is expected to provide flexible, dispatchable low-carbon power equivalent to the average electricity requirements of around 1.3 million UK homes, and to progress the deployment of carbon ca

Ahmad Wakaa’s journey from extracting fossil fuels to fighting climate change was more difficult than just changing his professional focus. Born in Qamishli, Syria, to a large extended family, he earned a petroleum engineering degree and went to work in the oil fields around his hometown. Forced to flee the Syrian civil war, Wakaa made a dangerous escape, crossing nearly ten international borders to find safety. Granted asylum in Norway, he now helps companies test carbon capture technologies at a facility that looks like a labyrinth of pipes, tanks, and gauges.
- System employs unique technical approach that brings together GE’s core competencies in heat exchangers, thermal management, and innovative materials
- The Direct Air Capture (DAC) system is part of a much larger effort led by GE’s CAGE (Climate Action@GE) Lab in Niskayuna, NY, to deliver cutting-edge solutions in CO2 capture
- GE’s CAGE Lab involves a carbon capture team of 50+ scientists and engineers, working with the U.S.

Fighting today’s emissions is one kind of project, but what about fighting yesterday’s? The world has been pumping out carbon dioxide since the industrial revolution, building a mountain of CO2 that won’t be dislodged by new solar power or electric vehicles. An emerging approach to attack this legacy CO2 is direct air capture, or DAC.
This Thursday, GE will hold its annual Investor Conference at GE Aerospace’s Customer Technical Education Center and nearby manufacturing facilities in Cincinnati and will feature keynote presentations from GE Chairman and CEO and GE Aerospace CEO Larry Culp, GE Vernova CEO Scott Strazik, and leaders from both businesses.
Natural gas plants are an important part of the energy transition, as one of the tools to support more renewables being added to the grid. But despite the benefits gas offers in terms of reliability and availability, natural gas is a fossil fuel that produces carbon emissions (though much less than coal). GE Gas Power is working on a variety of ways to reduce the carbon emissions of gas-powered power stations. One of them is tantalizing: capture the carbon that’s emitted at the power station.
The hills and valleys of eastern Ohio are no strangers to energy revolutions. Some 200 years ago, settlers in what is now the town of Caldwell drilled the first working oil well in the United States. Earlier this month, a new power plant located an hour away in the village of Hannibal, on the Ohio River, produced electricity with a fuel mix containing hydrogen.
Speaking at the Techonomy Climate 2022 conference in Mountain View, California, on Tuesday, Roger Martella, GE’s chief sustainability officer, wanted to quickly underscore what brought him there: “I think history will look back on this day, this month, this year, and say this was the era of climate innovation,” he said.
