Canadian independent power producer Heartland Generation will evaluate hydrogen production and carbon sequestration as part of its Battle River Carbon Hub (BRCH) project, according to a press release.
BRCH will use existing infrastructure at Heartland’s Battle River Generating Station (BRGS) in Alberta, along with new hydrogen production to generate electricity.
The BRCH project also includes an open-access carbon sequestration hub, proximate to the BRGS, that will capture and sequester carbon emissions from Heartland Generation, and other industrial sources in the region.
The company was selected by the Government of Alberta as part of the Carbon Sequestration Tenure Management process.
