To achieve near-zero carbon emissions in fossil-fueled power plants, one of the viable solutions is to use bioenergy along with carbon capture and storage (BECCS) for the thermoelectric sector in Brazil. This study is conducted to carry out techno-economic assessments for pulverized coal (PC) and natural gas combined cycle (NGCC) power plants by employing BECCS. A comparative analysis of these technologies is presented, followed by the incorporation of carbon capture and storage (CCS) while using bioresources as fuel feedstock for PC (co-firing) and NGCC power plants.
