'We need to find a solution to reconcile energy demand and the need to reduce CO2 emissions , ' said Prime Minister Jens Stoltenberg in the opening ceremony of the center. 'Collecting CO2 is a key technology , ' he added. 'This technology can reduce emissions by 20% until 2050' .
The construction cost of the project is up to 1 billion USD, mainly based on the state budget. Tâm the center is owned by Gassnova, a Norwegian state-owned company, followed by 20% owned by Statoil, another Norwegian company, the rest belongs to the Dutch and African company Sasol.
