2014 Saskatchewan Boundary Dam carbon capture project underperforms, with 57% capture rate; report questions cost-effectiveness and future investment in coal-fired power plants.
Saskatchewan's Boundary Dam carbon capture project underperforms, according to a report. The report questions the cost-effectiveness of carbon capture technology, as the project misses emissions reduction goals. The project at a coal-fired power plant in southeast Saskatchewan, which began capturing carbon dioxide emissions in 2014, has a capture rate of 57%. The report suggests that it may not be a good use of money to keep coal-fired power plants running.
