Pycasso – PYrenean Carbon Abolition through Sustainable Sequestration Operations
Pycasso stands for PYrenean Carbon Abolition through Sustainable Sequestration Operations. PYCASSO project investigates the opportunity to decarbonise the heavy industry located onshore South West France and North Spain through the establishment of a large CCUS hub. The project aims to take advantage of the large depleted gas fields of the area which have been producing the last 60 years and it aspires to transport and store from 1 up to 2.5 Mtpa of CO2 from 2030 to 2034 and another additional 3.4 Mtpa as of 2035.
