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.

Defossilisation: Enabling Energy & Material Sovereignty

Executive Summary

Defossilisation replaces fossil extraction with renewable energy, hydrogen, and recycled carbon, enabling nations to achieve energy and material sovereignty while reducing geopolitical risk.

Strategic Context

Global energy systems remain dependent on unevenly distributed fossil resources, creating supply vulnerabilities, price volatility, and geopolitical leverage.

System Transition

The transition moves from Extract → Burn → Emit toward Generate → Convert → Recycle, enabled by renewable electricity, hydrogen, and carbon reuse.

Carbon as Infrastructure

Carbon is no longer a consumable fuel but a circulating system asset—similar to copper in electrical systems—forming the backbone of a closed-loop energy economy.

Industrial Transformation

CO₂ + H₂ pathways enable production of methane, methanol, olefins, and polymers, supporting full domestic industrial capability without fossil inputs.

Geopolitical Implications

Defossilisation removes dependence on imports, reduces exposure to supply disruptions, and weakens structural drivers of conflict.

CRT Framework

Carbon Recycling Technology (CRT) operationalises this model through a closed-loop carbon system delivering dispatchable, renewable energy and fuel.

Conclusion

Defossilisation represents a system-level redesign enabling sovereign, resilient, and sustainable energy and industrial systems.
