A CCS project at Boundary Dam Power Station near Estevan, Saskatchewan, Canada.

It became operational in 2014.

The carbon capture facility is attached to the retrofitted 150 MW Power Unit #3 at Boundary Dam.

Once captured, CO2 becomes a commodity and is sold to an oil company for Enhanced Oil Recovery purposes.

This process of EOR utilizes CO2 to maximize the removal of oil from reservoirs.

The captured CO2 is transported by pipeline 50 kilometers to nearby oilfields.

The Aquistore Storage Project is an option for captured CO2 that is not intended for EOR purposes. Located 2 kilometers from the project, CO2 is delivered to the Aquistore site via pipeline where it is injected 3.4 kilometers deep in a naturally occurring layer of brine-filled sandstone for permanent storage.
