CEWT – Carbon Recycling Technology (CRT)
Commercialisation Pathway (135 MW Demonstration Project)

1. Project Overview

Project: 135 MW Carbon Recycling Technology (CRT) Demonstration Plant
Proponent: Clean Energy and Water Technologies Pty Ltd (CEWT)
Location: Western Australia (Kwinana Industrial Region)

CRT establishes a closed carbon loop where captured CO₂ is continuously converted into renewable fuel (RNG) using hydrogen, enabling firm 24/7 power, the elimination of fossil dependency, and integration of renewable electricity with industrial systems.

2. Commercialisation Objective

Deliver Australia’s first grid-scale, firm, defossilised power system demonstrating continuous renewable-integrated power, industrial-scale carbon recycling, and a bankable architecture for replication.

3. Delivery Model

Blended finance, infrastructure-led model:
– Government Grants (~25%)
– Concessional Debt (~20–25%)
– Commercial Debt (~30–40%)
– Strategic Equity (selective, non-controlling)

4. Revenue & Bankability

Revenue Streams:
– Long-term PPA
– Industrial offtake
– Environmental certificates
– Grid services

Bankability:
– Anchor offtake
– Fixed EPC
– Vendor integration
– Policy alignment

5. Execution Pathway

Phase 1 (2026): FEED & Structuring
Phase 2 (2027): Financial Close
Phase 3 (2027–2029): Construction
Phase 4 (2030): Commissioning & COD

6. Strategic Partnerships

Collaboration with global partners for GTCC, SMR, methanation, and EPC delivery ensuring technical credibility and risk sharing.

7. National Impact

Energy Security, Industrial Decarbonisation, Grid Stability

8. Replicability

FOAK project enabling modular replication across power and industrial sectors.

9. Core Principle

Defossilisation is the end state. CRT transitions energy systems to a closed-loop carbon model.

10. Conclusion

CRT is a system-level solution delivering firm power, carbon reuse, and a bankable pathway to global deployment.
