FIRTH OF FORTH >>
Thornton New Energy (TNE) plans a phased development of the Firth of Forth coal field that will cumulate in a zero emission power plant running on hydrogen. The intension of TNE is to be carbon neutral, with the CO2 being placed in long term geological storage.
The appraisal stage has begun and will last for up to three years while the geology of the mine and the CO2 Sequestration sites are studied. The timescale for the power plant will be confirmed following consultation with the local community and other interested parties.
