- CO₂ MVR compressors, efficiently supplying thermal energy for carbon capture while reducing overall plant energy use and OPEX.
- Gi-hoon Do, Head of equipment business division, "With proven compressor technology for core CCUS processes, Hanwha Power Systems aims to be a key partner in achieving global carbon neutrality."
SEOUL, South Korea, Sept. 4, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- Hanwha Power Systems announced that it has signed a supply contract last month to deliver CO₂ Mechanical Vapor Recompression (MVR) compressors for a major Carbon Capture, Utilization, and Storage (CCUS) facility to be applied at a new combined-cycle power plant in Europe.
The compressors to be supplied for this project play a critical role in enhancing energy efficiency. By compressing low-pressure steam and converting it into high-temperature steam for reuse, the MVR system enables significant reductions in both energy consumption and operating expenditure (OPEX) through efficient heat recovery.
This project is particularly significant as it introduces CCUS technology to a next-generation combined-cycle power plant designed to minimize carbon emissions. With a facility structure that allows for real-time capture and treatment of CO₂ emissions, the plant is expected to serve as a milestone in driving industrial decarbonization. Commercial operations are scheduled to begin at the end of 2028.
Within the CO₂ capture process, Hanwha Power Systems' MVR compressors ensure system reliability by supplying stable high-temperature steam to the stripper, a crucial unit that separates CO₂ from amine solutions. By reusing low-temperature steam generated during the process, the system maintains continuous capture cycles while reducing overall plant energy consumption and operating costs.
Through the supply of compressors for CCUS applications, Hanwha Power Systems has further expanded its business portfolio into the low-carbon power generation market. In addition to carbon capture, the company offers a full lineup of CO₂ compression solutions exceeding 150 bar, supporting storage (enhanced oil recovery (EOR), sequestration), utilization, and transportation — enabling customers to access comprehensive solutions across the entire CCUS value chain.
Gi-hoon Do, Head of Equipment Business Division at Hanwha Power Systems, stated that "This project demonstrates our proven competitiveness in the emerging field of CCUS and positions us as a trusted technology leader. Moving forward, Hanwha Power Systems will continue to leverage its technological expertise and execution capabilities to be a key partner in achieving global carbon neutrality goals."

Hanwha Power Systems, Supply of CO₂ MVR compressors to a combined cycle power plant utilizing CCUS in Europe
Envision doubles down on the renewable energy system with its launch of Dubhe, an energy foundation model shaping the AI energy system.
ABU DHABI, UAE, Jan. 15, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- Envision, the global leader in green technology, today announced the launch of Dubhe, its groundbreaking Energy Foundation Model, designed to shape the world's largest Physical AI system – the AI energy system.
Inspired by Dubhe, the guiding star of the Big Dipper that has helped humanity navigate by the North Star for thousands of years, the Dubhe Energy Foundation Model was unveiled by Lei Zhang, Founder and CEO of Envision, during the Abu Dhabi Sustainability Week.
Dubhe sits at the core of Envision's Physical AI architecture, analysing vast real-world energy data streams to orchestrate renewable generation, storage, grids, and demand in real time. By unlocking the abundance of renewable resources and driving costs toward near-zero marginal levels, Dubhe enables energy systems to scale in step with AI—addressing the unprecedented energy demands that AI places on global infrastructure.
"For centuries, Dubhe guided humanity through the night sky. Today, Dubhe is the guiding star of the AI era—shaping the AI energy system with a foundation that is infinite, intelligent, and inexpensive, supporting the prosperity of a new civilization." Says Lei.
Shaping the AI Energy System: From Large Language Models to Physical Artificial Intelligence
While large language models have transformed the digital world, Envision believes the next leap lies in Physical Artificial Intelligence—AI that directly governs the physical systems essential to human survival and prosperity.
Dubhe works in tandem with Tianji, Envision's large-scale weather foundation model. Because renewable energy depends on weather, Tianji provides the predictive intelligence that allows Physical AI to anticipate and respond to weather-driven variability, ensuring the energy system operates efficiently and reliably at scale.
"Language models understand words. Physical AI understands the world. Energy is the foundation of all systems." Says Lei. "This isn't just an energy transition. It's a civilizational upgrade, laying the foundation for human prosperity within planetary boundaries."
Strategic Partnership with Masdar to Advance AI Energy System Deployment
Envision also signed a strategic cooperation agreement with Masdar, the UAE's clean energy champion, to jointly unveil the future-oriented AI Energy System.The signing was witnessed by HE Dr Sultan Al Jaber, UAE Minister of Industry and Advanced Technology, ADNOC Managing Director and Group CEO, Masdar Chairman, together with Lei Zhang.
Under the agreement, Masdar recognizes Envision as a strategic partner in renewable energy technology sectors, including wind power, energy storage, and green hydrogen, to jointly advance the large-scale deployment of AI energy systems and accelerate the global energy transition.
