DECARBIT Enabling advanced pre-combustion capture techniques and plants

Coordinator: SINTEF ENERGI AS (NO)

DECARBit responds to the urgent need for further research and development in advanced pre-combustion capture techniques to substantially reduce emissions of greenhouse gases from fossil fuel power plants. The project will accelerate the technology development and contribute to the deployment of large scale carbon capture and storage (CCS) plants in line with the adopted European policies for emission reductions. DECARBit- short for “ Decarbonise it”, is established by 16 legal entities constituting the core group of the project. These encompass 5 leading industrial technology providers, 2 tec…

About Seventh Framework Programme (2007–2013)

The Seventh Framework Programme (FP7) ran from 2007 to 2013 and was the EU's main research-funding instrument of that period. It mobilised roughly €50 billion across cooperation projects, ERC frontier grants, Marie Curie fellowships, capacity-building actions and Euratom research. FP7 closed to new calls in 2013 but its projects continued for years after under their original grant agreements.

Co-funding: the European Union contributes €10.2M toward a total project budget of €15.5M — a funding rate of 66%, with the remainder covered by the consortium partners. The project runs over approximately 4.5 years from 2008-01-01 to 2012-06-30.
