Copenhagen, Denmark,, April 11, 2025 / Prnewswire / – Norne Thorning Storage APS (“Norne”), a company Fidelis New Energy, LLC, received the license to explore the Thorning structure by the Danish Minister of Climate, Energy and Public Services. Norne will soon start her exploration work program to collect the necessary information on the structure to assess and deeply confirm his ability to storage safe and permanent CO2. If the structure is suitable for storage, this could open the way for storage before 2030.
Norne will be the operator of the Thorning exploration license working alongside their partner of Cocentreprise Nordsøfonden, representing the Danish state. If the acquisition and evaluation of data confirm that the geological structure of Thorning is suitable for safe and permanent co2 storage, Norne and Nordsøfonden would then have the exclusive right to request a CO2 storage license, which will be subject to the approval of the Danish energy agency (“DEA”). In addition to successfully obtaining the CO2 storage license, all relevant environmental permits will be in place and all financial and security requirements were met before establishing a CO2 storage installation.
“The exploration work program has been carefully designed to provide a complete understanding of deep geological structures and their ability to store CO2 safely and permanently. Ross, Norne’s exclusive Doutrface and Wells Partner and their long experience with the basement of Denmark has played a decisive role in planning the work program, which includes air surveys for extended seismic sensors with a minimum of environmental impacts, large 3D seismic surveys and exploration and evaluation wells, “said Lars Bo ChristiansenPresident of Norne Climate Impact.
The price of the Thorning exploration license is an important step for Norne. Norne is sponsored by Fidelis New Energy, LLC since 2021 and was chosen as the EU project of common interest (“PCI”) by the European Commission in 2023. The addition of the Thorning structure to Norne will bring Denmark And the EU has one more step towards its decarbonization objectives with the potential to offer difficult industries to cut off an integrated solution to reduce their CO2 emissions.
“We are impatient to work alongside DEA and collaborate with Nordsøfonden to explore the CO2 storage potential of the Danish basement, in the hope of creating Thorning as a safe site for CO2 storage,” said Bengt Järlsjö, co-founder and president of Fidelis New Energy. “This license price highlights Denmark Leadership in decarbonization once again, helping both the Danish and European industries in their pursuit of important reductions in carbon emissions. Since 2021, we are actively committing to the Danish government, local authorities, the port of Aalborg and industry partners throughout Denmark And Europe. Our vision has always focused on the promotion of effective and safe policies to capture and storage carbon on the ground, while creating effective and profitable CO2 infrastructure solutions for Denmark And Europe. “”
Exploration and potential development of CO2 geological storage are important for Denmark To achieve its carbon reduction goals for 2030 and beyond. Norne’s long and engaging discussions with Danish players and the EU industry who need to storage CO2 decarbonizing has enabled a concept where the costs and the environmental impact of Danish CO2 reductions can be considerably reduced as the installations are used by Danish and European issuers. Norne allows multiple CO2 delivery methods to Thorning. A CO2 reception terminal at the port of Aalborg will receive the CO2 from Danish CO2 issuers, Balts and Europeans.
