“What we’re trying to do there is grow algae at the power station, modify the system and run it through a trial period through next year to understand exactly how the algae grows and how it responds to the flu gas emissions.”

“It’s really the first anywhere and the other project in Spain is connected to a cement kiln and there’s a similar sort of approach in Israel, so this is the first one of its scale at a power station,” he said.
