BioCirc Grønhøj Biogas BECCS
Grønhøj is the smallest of the five CCS sites by biomethane capacity but follows the same integrated capture model. Biogenic CO₂ from biogas upgrading is captured and liquefied at the plant, then transported to Esbjerg and stored permanently beneath the Danish North Sea through the INEOS-led Greensand Future infrastructure. The site was among the four biogas plants (with Vinkel, Vesthimmerland and Iglsø) acquired by BioCirc in 2023. Its capture unit forms part of the platform delivering durable, Puro.earth-certified carbon removal to Microsoft from 2026 through 2032.
