Liverpool CCS Aims to store 10 Million Tonnes of waste emissions Under Liverpool Bay Every Year

Framed as a climate solution, this controversial carbon capture project would see massive volumes of waste emissions pumped into the seabed, just miles from Merseyside’s coast. With limited public consultation, unclear long-term safety guarantees, and a track record of global CCS failures, North West residents Should have been informed. is this really safe for our communities, our marine environment, and future generations?

What Local Residents Need to Know About the Liverpool Bay Carbon Storage Project

The Liverpool Bay CCS (Carbon Capture and Storage) project plans to inject up to 10 million tonnes of liquefied industrial CO₂ waste every year under the seabed, using a disused gas field just off the Merseyside coast. This former fossil fuel site is currently filled with high pressure "brine" and experts warn that pumping waste emissions into it could force residual oil, gas, and unknown chemicals back out into the sea.

The site is being used to store emissions from industry across the North West, transported by pipeline through local areas like Runcorn, Ellesmere Port, and the Wirral. While it’s often described simply as “CO₂ ” in reality, the captured waste contains impurities, including chemicals, acids, and industrial residues. Even at 99% purity, 10 million tonnes of emissions a year would still mean 100,000 Tonnes of chemical by-products being pumped underground annually. Some projects have reported purities as low as 90%, which would mean up to a million tonnes of impurities over a decade.

Despite the scale and potential long-term consequences of this project, local residents have not been meaningfully consulted, and major questions remain unanswered:

Risk of Leaks?

What happens if the storage field leaks over time?

Pumping out "Brine" after its been in a gas field?

Could brine and fossil fuel residues be pushed into marine ecosystems?
