Question
To ask the Scottish Government what assessment it has made of the connections between Peterhead Power Station and the Scottish Cluster in relation to enabling carbon capture.
Answer
It is proposed that the carbon capture project at Peterhead Power Station would connect into the CCS infrastructure being developed by the Acorn Project and the wider Scottish Cluster. This would see its emissions transported through shared pipelines and safely stored under the North Sea.
