findings from condition monitoring along with any statutory inspection and
maintenance outages.
2. Assumptions
Operation of the power plant will remain a commercial concern with the
integrated CCS (Carbon Capture and Storage) chain being operated as
necessary to demonstrate CO2 sequestration requirements.
The power plant will be designed to be at optimum efficiency at full load
with the CCS chain in service.
The design approach for the CCS chain is to allow the option to run the
CCS chain at 100% load or at lower loads within commercial constraints.
Both power plant and CCS chain will be designed to allow flexible
operation over the full operational load a wide range, as far as possible
independent of each other from a loading perspective. However, optimum
operation at the lower end of the range has yet to be fully determined.
Should the power plant be operated at less than 100% load (MCR), all
component parts of the CCS chain shall be designed to give the option to
continue at the maximum 6600tpd removal rate as power plant load is
reduced until it approaches the threshold of available steam quantity and
quality for effective operation. Thus, the CCS chain may be operated at its
maximum capacity at loads below full load as required
The CCS chain shall then be designed to allow reduction in CO2 removal
along a similar de-loading ramp to the power plant.
The CCS chain will be designed to flexibly operate between MSG
(Minimum Stable Generation), and full load (MCR) as required. At any time
the power station may be called to operate at any load within this range
and be expected to achieve that load within declared loading / de-loading
rates.
Power plant outage requirements are yet to

3. Design Requirements
The power plant with integrated CCS chain will be designed to be flexible
within its operating parameters and capable of;
Start up ability to start from hot, warm and cold conditions.
Ramp up ability to increase and decrease load at a declared rate
within its operating parameters as required by commercial and Grid
requirements.
Full Load / Part Load Operation ability to maintain stable generation
at any load between its declared MSG (Minimum Stable Generation)
and MCR (Maximum Continuous Rating).
Shutdown ability to safely and securely shutdown as required by
market conditions and Grid requirements to a mode available for restart
when required. It is expected that during de-loading the CCS will not
normally be in service at loads below MSG.
