MT Group, an EPC contractor engaged in strategic energy and industrial infrastructure projects across Europe, has recently signed a contract with Danish energy company Ørsted for the engineering and construction of Balance of Plant (BoP) piping and equipment for a carbon capture facility.

Commenting on the development, Mindaugas Zakaras, CEO of MT Group said, “The signing of this contract is a significant milestone for MT Group and a strong testament to our commitment to driving the renewable energy transition across Europe.”

This contract is part of Ørsted's 20-year agreement with the Danish Energy Agency (DEA) for the ambitious carbon capture and storage (CCS) project, the ‘Ørsted Kalundborg CO2 Hub’. It 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.

Under this agreement, MT Group will handle the engineering and construction of piping for the BoP equipment for the CO2 capture and storage facility including installation of BoP equipment. Responsibilities include finalising the BoP facility's design and integrating it with the existing woodchip-fired boiler plant and the new CO2 capture and storage facility at Asnæsværket, Denmark.

MT Group will also oversee the procurement, supply, construction, and installation of the entire cooling and steam systems, including pipelines, to the interface of the CO2 capture and storage units. Additionally, the company will ensure the scope of supply undergoes rigorous testing and commissioning to meet all regulatory and operational standards before it becomes fully operational.

This contract aligns with MT Group’s strategic focus on the renewable energy transition. “We have firmly established MT Group as a strong and reliable EPC contractor, particularly in the development of complex natural gas and LNG projects across Europe. This contract marks a significant step in our expansion in the green energy markets and strengthens our position in this rapidly growing area,” adds Zakaras.
