Eidsiva Bioenergi wants to map the market to identify suppliers who can offer carbon capture and permanent storage of CO2 as a service (CCS as a service). The deadline for input is 30 September 2026. In this context, "CCS as a service" refers to the business model in which the supplier assumes responsibility for establishing, financing, and operating carbon capture facilities, as well as managing the transport and permanent storage of captured CO2 from the Trehørningen energy center. Eidsiva Bioenergi procures in such a model a service connected to capture and permanent storage of CO2 based on further agreed commercial and technical terms. The tenderer is required to handle the downstream value chain for storing biogeneous CO2, including the sale of CDR (carbon removal credits).
