Northern Lights : a huge project to store geologically CO2
In collaboration with Equinor and Shell, TotalEnergies is developing a project in Norway to transport and store CO2 in underground geological formations located off the Norwegian coast.
The BaCaSi project plans the sustainable management of a 55,000-ha site made up of damaged grasslands exposed to regular bush fires, as part of the National Afforestation Program (ProNar) initiated by the Congo.
The aim is to plant a new 40,000-ha carbon sink that will capture 12 million tCO2eq over 35 years.
The operation, due to last 35 years, includes:
on which the project has a significant impact
Emissions Absorptions : Afforestation of a surface area of 40,000 ha
Quantification :

The project will help preserve the gallery forests found on site, particularly through the implementation of firewalls and surveillance of the site.
The project will be developed in association with the local communities and indigenous people, who will benefit from the agroforestry perimeter. The project will generate direct and indirect employment, and a local development fund will support actions in favor of neighboring villages in the areas of health, nutrition and education.
The acacia-cassava model developed in the frame of the BaCaSi project has already been tested in the sub-region. It can be replicated on damaged grasslands.
