Sweden could benefit from carbon dioxide storage opportunities abroad. Carbon capture and storage (CCS), including bioenergy with carbon capture and storage (BECCS), could contribute to climate change mitigation strategies. However, the 2020s is not the first time that CCS is high on the agenda.
There has been a shift in Sweden from mapping domestic storage capacity to focusing on near- to mid-term storage of CO 2 in Norway. Previous mappings of the potential for CCS in the Baltic Sea region have included Swedish storage capacity [18, 45], however, there has still not been any development of storage infrastructure.
However, in 2021, the Swedish Energy Agency was tasked with drafting a proposal for a bilateral storage agreement with Norway on behalf of the Swedish g overnment. If it is decided that Swedish carbon dioxide shall be stored in Norway it will be deep below the seabed in geological formations in the North Sea.
Sweden has little potential of its own for CO 2 storage, but at present no project has been initiated to enable storage. At the same time, Norway has invested in making a product of transporting and storing CO 2. How does Norway's investment affect the possibility of CCS in Sweden?
Sweden’s Smart Energy ecosystem brings together leading suppliers of smart grids, district heating and cooling, and innovative solutions for energy storage. These key players are on a mission to speed up the transition to clean electricity and carbon neutrality – in Sweden and globally.
