Regulatory News:
Northern Endurance Partnership (NEP) announced today financial
close, allowing to proceed with the execution of the first CCS
project in the UK. NEP, in which TotalEnergies (Paris:TTE)
(LSE:TTE) (NYSE:TTE) holds a 10% shareholding interest, will
permanently store up to an initial 4 million tonnes of CO2 per
year.
The NEP infrastructure will initially serve three carbon capture
projects in the Teesside region (NZT Power, H2Teesside and Teesside
Hydrogen CO2 Capture). Infrastructure includes an onshore CO2
gathering network, compression facilities and a 145 km offshore
pipeline connected to subsea injection facilities in the Endurance
saline aquifer located around 1,000m below the seabed.
Construction is expected to start from mid-2025 with first CO2
storage expected in 2028.
Arnaud Le Foll, Senior Vice President New Business – Carbon
Neutrality, TotalEnergies, said: “We are very pleased to be a
part of this significant moment in the development of the UK’s CCS
industry. NEP is a frontrunner project and we look forward to
transporting and permanently storing CO2 from one of the UK’s
largest industrial regions. Our stake in NEP contributes to
TotalEnergies’ objective to develop significant CO2 storage
capacities in the North Sea, where we can leverage our expertise in
operations and geosciences.”
Chris Daykin, Director, Northern Endurance Partnership,
said: “This is a landmark moment in the development of CCUS
infrastructure and the UK’s ambition to reach net zero emissions by
2050. With joint backing from shareholders and the UK Government,
Northern Endurance Partnership is entering its execution phase
ahead of start-up expected in 2028.”
Ed Miliband, Secretary of State for Energy Security and Net
Zero, said: “This investment launches a new era for clean
energy in Britain - boosting energy security, backing industries,
and supporting thousands of highly skilled jobs in Teesside and the
North East. This is the Government’s mission to make the UK a clean
energy superpower in action- replacing Britain’s energy insecurity
with homegrown clean power that rebuilds the strength of our
industrial heartlands.”

About Northern Endurance Partnership (NEP) NEP is the CO2
transportation and storage provider for the East Coast Cluster
(ECC). The NEP infrastructure will initially serve the
Teesside-based carbon capture projects – NZT Power, H2Teesside and
Teesside Hydrogen CO2 Capture – that were selected for first
connection to NEP by Department of Energy Security and Net Zero
(DESNZ) in March 2023 as part of the UK’s cluster sequencing
process for carbon capture usage and storage (CCUS). NEP has been
granted the first Carbon Dioxide Transport and Storage Licence in
the UK under the Transportation and storage Regulatory Investment
(TRI) regime – a regulatory regime that unlocks private investment
in long-term infrastructure by providing incentives and protections
in developing a nascent CCUS market in the UK. NEP has also been
granted a CO2 Storage Permit by the North Sea Transition Authority
which will enable CO2 injection and storage to commence when the
infrastructure is complete. bp (45%), Equinor (45%), and
TotalEnergies (10%) are NEP shareholders.
