Earned value and agile
This document discusses using earned value management techniques to track progress on agile software development projects. It provides examples of how earned value can be calculated based on estimating story points and tracking points completed over time, even as the backlog size increases, decreases, or remains static over the course of a project. Calculating the percentage of points completed to date compared to the total estimated points allows earned value to measure project performance in dollars based on the value associated with each point.

The document summarizes the key findings and recommendations of the UK CCS Cost Reduction Task Force. It finds that carbon capture, transportation, and storage technologies have the potential to make low-carbon power generation cost competitive by the early 2020s. However, CCS demonstration projects currently face high costs. The Task Force identifies opportunities to reduce costs through infrastructure sharing, financing, economies of scale, technology improvements, and market incentives. It recommends actions to establish an optimal transportation and storage network, incentivize CO2 storage, ensure appropriate funding, and promote further CCS development and deployment in the UK.Carbon Capture and Storage (CCSP) research program overview
This document provides an overview of Carbon Capture and Storage (CCS) technologies and research in Finland. It defines CCS as the capture, transportation, and storage of carbon dioxide emissions from power plants and industrial facilities to reduce CO2 in the atmosphere. It then outlines Finland's Carbon Capture and Storage Program from 2011-2015 that involves industry and research partners developing CCS concepts and technologies, with a goal of pilots and demonstrations. Key research areas include capture solutions, transportation, storage sites in the Baltic Sea, utilization of CO2, and regulatory frameworks. Recent projects developed new seismic sensors to monitor CO2 storage and a process to convert steelmaking waste into calcium carbonate.

In 2018, the Norwegian government announced its decision to continue the planning of a demonstration project for CO2 capture, transport and storage. This webinar focuses on the Fortum Oslo Varme CCS project. This is one of the two industrial CO2 sources in the Norwegian full-scale project.
At their waste-to-energy plant at Klemetsrud in Oslo, Fortum Oslo Varme produces electricity and district heating for the Oslo region by incinerating waste. Its waste-to-energy plant is one of the largest land-based sources of CO2 emissions in Norway, counting for about 20 % of the city of Oslo’s total emissions. The CCS project in Oslo is an important step towards a sustainable waste system and the creation of a circular economy. It will be the first energy recovery installation for waste disposal treatment with full-scale CCS.
Fortum Oslo Varme has understood the enormous potential for the development of a CCS industry in the waste-to-energy industry. The company is working to capture 90 % of its CO2 emissions, the equivalent of 400 000 tons of CO2 per year. This project will open new opportunities to reduce emissions from the waste sector in Norway and globally. Carbon capture from waste incineration can remove over 90 million tons of CO2 per year from existing plants in Europe. There is high global transfer value and high interest in the industry for the project in Oslo.
The waste treated consists of almost 60 % biological carbon. Carbon capture at waste-to-energy plants will therefore be so-called BIO-CCS (i.e. CCS from the incineration of organic waste, thereby removing the CO2 from the natural cycle).

CO2 capture and utilisation for industry
This document discusses assessing the feasibility of implementing carbon dioxide (CO2) capture and utilization at the Quorn mycoprotein process to help decarbonize its operations. The project aims to develop mass and energy balances for the Quorn process, model selected CO2 capture technologies, and evaluate the techno-economics and carbon footprint of potential CO2 utilization pathways. Preliminary results found that amine scrubbing would increase steam and power demands while carbonate looping could help Quorn become more energy independent by producing steam and power. Next steps involve analyzing CO2 utilization options like sodium bicarbonate production and gathering social perceptions on CO2 capture and use from workshops with Quorn staff and local industry.

Last week, the UK’s Energy Technologies Institute (ETI) published the results of its 12-month, £2.5million CO2 Storage Appraisal Project, Progressing development of the UK’s Strategic Carbon Dioxide Storage Resource.
The Project, funded by the UK Department of Energy and Climate Change and carried out by Pale Blue Dot Energy, Axis Well Technology and Costain, confirmed that there are no technical hurdles to permanently storing large volumes of CO2 in offshore geological storage off the coast of the UK, including sites large enough to comfortably service CO2 supplies from mainland Europe.
Over the course of 12 months this ambitious Project identified 20 specific CO2 storage sites (from a potential 579 sites) which together represent the tip of a very large strategic national CO2 storage resource potential, estimated to be around 78GT (78,000 million tonnes).
Five of these sites were then selected for further detailed analysis given their potential contribution to mobilise commercial-scale CCS projects for power and industrial use in the UK.
This Webinar provided an opportunity to dig deeper into the wealth of comprehensive data and modelling that has been made publically available through the publishing of this report, and to consider its significance for helping to de-risk future CCS investment decisions.
To expertly guide us through this process, the Global CCS Institute was delighted to welcome Andrew Green, Programme Manager - Carbon Capture & Storage at the ETI, and Alan James, Managing Director at Pale Blue Dot Energy (the Consortium Lead for this project) to join us for the webinar.
After an overview of the Project and a more detailed look at the final outcomes, Andrew and Alan were joined by subject matter specialists: Steve Murphy – Pale Blue Dot Energy, Angus Reid – Costain, and Sharon McCollough – Axis Well Technologies, for a live Q&A session for the second half of the webinar.Fuelling a cleaner, healthier construction industry
