The Construction Enquirer writes: "Balfour Beatty lands £833m carbon capture power plant job".
In summary: Balfour Beatty has secured an £833 million contract to deliver the on-shore works for Net Zero Teesside Power, billed as the world’s first gas-fired power station fitted with full carbon-capture and storage. Working for Technip Energies, and alongside GE Vernova and Shell Catalysts & Technologies, the contractor will build a 742 MW combined-cycle plant and a post-combustion capture unit able to remove up to two million tonnes of CO₂ a year. Captured emissions will be compressed and piped offshore for permanent storage under the North Sea via the Northern Endurance Partnership, a bp-, Equinor- and TotalEnergies-backed venture. Main construction begins later in 2025, completion is slated for 2028, and the project is expected to create about 1,500 jobs at its peak.
