Transport & storage

The captured CO2 will undergo compression at Sysav’s site and then be transported in gaseous state by a purpose-built underground onshore pipeline approximately 1.8 km from the Sysav’s site to the Malmö harbour. At the Malmö harbour the CO2 will be liquefied and stored in intermediate storage tanks before being loaded onto dedicated ships and transported to a site for permanent offshore geological storage. The intermediate storage is designed to accommodate additional CO₂ from other emitters with the purpose of creating a regional CO₂-hub at the Malmö harbour. Capturing, compression, liquefication and purification of the CO2, as well as the transportation in the pipelines, is operated by Sysav, while the intermediate storage, transport and permanent storage is facilitated by a third-party.
