enfinium progresses plans for Ferrybridge carbon capture project
enfinium is proposing to install carbon capture and storage (CCS) technology at its Ferrybridge 1 and 2 energy from waste facilities in Knottingley, West Yorkshire.
Our non-statutory consultation ran from Monday 16 September 2024 to Sunday 20 October 2024. We are now planning a statutory consultation for later this year, where we will be seeking your views on our proposals to install CCS at Ferrybridge 1 and 2.
As our proposals develop, you can use this website to view our latest plans, get involved in consultations and leave your feedback.
