Buying carbon capture from Exergi to reach climate goals
This agenda item concerns the approval of Stockholms Stadshus AB's purchase of negative emissions from Stockholm Exergi's BECCS facility. Stockholm Exergi is building a carbon capture plant at Värtaverket, where captured CO2 will be permanently stored under the seabed off Bergen, Norway. The purchase, which could amount to a maximum of SEK 120 million annually between 2029 and 2043, aims to help the City of Stockholm achieve its climate goals of being climate-positive by 2030 and fossil-free by 2040 at the latest, by balancing hard-to-reduce emissions.
This item has been updated with information from the minutes of the 2026-04-13 meeting.
