Everllence has been chosen by EPC contractor SAIPEM to deliver the core compressor and expander technology for Stockholm Exergi’s Bioenergy with Carbon Capture and Storage (BECCS) project at the Värtaverket biomass power plant. The initiative is one of the world’s largest bioenergy-based CCS projects and is designed to permanently store biogenic CO₂ emissions from sustainable biomass combustion.
The facility will capture up to 800,000 tons of CO₂ annually — more than the emissions from all road traffic in Stockholm — with the captured carbon transported and stored beneath the North Sea via Northern Lights.
“This project marks a major step toward industrial-scale carbon removals,” said Dr. Uwe Lauber, CEO of Everllence. “By enabling the permanent storage of biogenic CO₂, the facility supports Sweden’s ambition to become climate-positive by 2030 and serves as a scalable model for urban carbon removal worldwide. We are proud to contribute to this pioneering initiative with our high-efficiency axial compressor and expander train.”
Everllence will provide its electrically-driven MAX1 compressor train, featuring the AG110 axial compressor and EN080 axial expander, engineered for high-volume flue gas handling.
The BECCS facility, supported by the Swedish government and EU funding, has already secured carbon removal agreements with major global companies including Microsoft. The biomass plant currently supplies heat and electricity to more than 800,000 residents in Stockholm.
“Our proven axial turbomachinery is ideally suited for high-volume flue gas applications like this one,” said Uwe Emmerich, Head of Sales Petrochemicals and Energy Storage at Everllence. “Stockholm is the first BECCS facility to implement this configuration — setting a new benchmark for efficiency and scalability in the carbon capture sector.”
