Pastoria Energy Facility NGCC Carbon Capture

Calpine California CCUS Holdings LLC (Calpine) will conduct a front-end engineering design (FEED) study for a post-combustion carbon capture system at the Pastoria Energy Facility (PEF) in Bakersfield, California. The PEF complex includes two separate natural gas combined cycle (NGCC) facilities, or power blocks. The carbon capture system will be sized to process all carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions from power block 1 (PB1), approximately 1.84 million tonnes per annum (MTPA) net CO2, using Honeywell UOP’s (UOP) Generation Two amine solvent-based technology, Advanced Solvent Carbon Capture (ASCC)
