So a lot rests on the “credibility” of projected CO2 increase from Acorn, for example as extra sites are progressively added in along to Grangemouth, or if shipping CO2 from elsewhere in the UK is not allowed, and especially if CO2 imported for profitable storage is not allowed, then it can be hard for Acorn to compete in tonnage. 17) Key mitigations could be i) to sign up partnerships from CO2 sources around the UK to be stored by Acorn and transported into Peterhead by shipping, ii) to increase credibility of future CO2 sources, such as very large scale making of blue hydrogen at St Fergus, where 30% of UK gas supply is landed at much less embedded carbon than HyNet; iii) to clarify that profitable import of CO2 is allowed from outside the UK, to decrease costs per tonne and scale-up into the future, iv) to include and value the positive attributes offered by Acorn into an adapted scoring matrix; v...
