Taiheiyo Cement to participate in Tohoku West Coast carbon capture and storage project

Japan: A Taiheiyo Cement plant will be one of two facilities to host carbon capture systems under the Tohoku West Coast carbon capture and storage (CCS) project. The Japan Organisation for Metals and Energy Security selected the project to advance to the feasibility study stage on 2 August 2023. The partners will now investigate technical issues in the entire CCS value chain, as well as commercial and social issues around transporting captured CO2 by ship to temporary storage sites. Identification of permanent underwater storage sites is scheduled for 2024, with the design stage of capture, transport and storage systems scheduled to conclude in 2026. The Tohoku West Coast carbon capture and storage project will commence in 2030.

Taiheiyo Cement is committed to a 20% reduction of its CO2 emissions between 2000 and 2030, while the Japanese government is committed to a 46% reduction between 2013 and 2030.
