Technical FAQs 4

How much CO2 can Norway Store a year?

Phase 1 of Norway’s first carbon capture and storage project, which started operations in September 2024, can store 1.5 million tonnes of CO2 annually, equal to the emissions of about 750,000 cars annually.

Will Norway reduce energy use in buildings by 10 Terawatt hours?

In the buildings sector, which accounts for 34% of TFC, Norway has a target to reduce energy use in existing buildings by 10 terawatt hours (TWh) by 2030 relative to 2015 levels. The main energy efficiency measure in the buildings sector is the adoption of building codes.

Will a hydro concession be granted to the illvatn pumped storage power plant?

In April 2020, the Norwegian Ministry of Energy granted Hydro concession to develop the Illvatn pumped storage power plant. An application for a plan change is currently being processed by the Norwegian Water Resources and Energy Directorate (NVE).

How important is Northern Lights in achieving Europe's net-zero emissions targets?

With the announcement of Phase 2 in March 2025, this capacity is expected to grow dramatically to increase storage to at least 5 million tonnes per year by 2028. This scalability highlights Northern Lights’ importance in reaching Europe’s net-zero emissions targets. The significance of the project goes beyond Norway.
