The zero emission power plant (ZEPP) is an innovative concept for oxyfuel combustion of 170 MWth (50MWe) power plant in Drachten/Akkrum. It is expected a capture rate of 250,000 ton CO2 annualy, with transport and storage into gas fields for EGR, resulting in a yield of natural gas of about 40 million cubic metres.

The ZEPP project involves the collaboration of SEQ Nederland BV, ENECO Milieu BV, Delft University of Technology (TU Delft) and the Stichting Energy Valley initiative.

The project cost is cost €60 million of which €10 million is subsidy from Ministry of Finance.

The project is expected to leads towards development of large scale oxyfuel power plants, rising efficiencies with new turbine technologies with ‘flexible concept’ repeatable on many locations, perhaps driven by storage or oxygen availability.
