What happened

Some supportReported by 1 outlet

The Peak Cluster project, which aims to reinforce cement and lime production, involves Tarmac and Holcim as two of four producers whose carbon dioxide will be captured. The project utilizes a pipeline that runs through a construction corridor, which has been amended to account for the project's needs. These amendments affect approximately 15 percent of the pipeline, including areas near Holmes Chapel and Middlewich.

Why it matters

Some supportBrind's analysis of the reports

The project is backed by a £28.6 million government commitment for the Peak Cluster. While it offers a method for reducing greenhouse gas emissions, the proposal remains highly controversial due to its impact on local areas in Cheshire and Wirral.

The pipeline is intended to transport CO2 to a storage facility, utilizing carbon capture technology for the Peak Cluster project.
