The HyNet Carbon Dioxide Pipeline, known as the Main Onshore Pipeline, is a Nationally Significant Infrastructure Project which was granted a Development Consent Order (DCO) by the Secretary of Energy Security and Net Zero in March 2024.
The DCO allows for the construction, operation and maintenance of infrastructure to transport captured CO₂ as part of the HyNet Carbon Capture and Storage (CCS) cluster, where Liverpool Bay CCS Limited, a member of the Eni SpA group (LBCCS), is the transportation and storage operator.
