Northern Lights is the world’s first merchant CO2 transportation and storage project. The first phase of the project has a storage capacity of 1.5 Mt CO2/year, which has been fully booked by customers from Norway and Continental Europe.
[pdf] When Norway announced its off-grid solar storage initiative in 2022, critics chuckled. “Solar power in Oslo? That’s like opening a sunscreen shop in a cave!” But fast forward to 2025, and this 150MW facility now powers 20% of the city’s public transport during winter darkness [7].
[pdf] Financed by a $100 million grant from the World Bank’s International Development Association and supplemented by an additional $31 million from the Mozambique Energy for All Multi-Donor Trust Fund—comprising $13 million from the Government of Sweden and $18 million from the Government of Norway—the project aims to transform the lives of households, businesses, and health and education facilities across urban, peri-urban, rural, and deep rural areas.
