MT Group, a prominent EPC contractor specializing in energy and industrial infrastructure projects across Europe, has signed a contract with Ørsted, a leading Danish energy company, to engineer and construct Balance of Plant (BoP) piping and equipment for a major carbon capture facility.
“This contract is a major milestone for MT Group and demonstrates our dedication to driving the renewable energy transition across Europe,” said Mindaugas Zakaras, CEO of MT Group.
Supporting Global Climate Change Initiatives
This agreement is part of Ørsted’s 20-year contract with the Danish Energy Agency (DEA) for the ambitious carbon capture and storage (CCS) initiative known as the ‘Ørsted Kalundborg CO2 Hub.’ The project aims to capture and store 430,000 tons of CO2 annually from two Ørsted power stations. The captured CO2 will be transported to Northern Lights in Norway for geological storage, contributing to global efforts to reduce greenhouse gas emissions.
Under the contract, MT Group will manage the engineering and construction of BoP equipment and piping for the CO2 capture and storage facility. This includes integrating the facility with the existing woodchip-fired boiler plant and the new CO2 capture infrastructure at Asnæsværket, Denmark.
MT Group’s responsibilities will also cover the procurement, supply, and installation of cooling and steam systems, along with testing and commissioning to ensure the facility meets regulatory and operational standards before becoming fully operational.
As a leading EPC contractor, MT Group continues to play a critical role in advancing Europe’s renewable energy infrastructure. The company is also a founding partner in the Green Energy Park, one of the world’s largest renewable energy projects, aimed at producing competitively priced green hydrogen to decarbonize sectors like transportation and power across Europe and beyond.
