SINGAPORE, Oct 27 (Reuters) - Electric services firm GE

Vernova ( GEV ) and power generation company YTL PowerSeraya will

jointly conduct a carbon capture feasibility study for its gas

turbine plant in Singapore, GE Vernova ( GEV ) said on Monday.

The study aims to capture at least 90 per cent of carbon

dioxide emissions at YTL PowerSeraya's hydrogen-ready

combined-cycle gas turbine 600-megawatts power plant, set to be

built by the end of 2027 on Singapore's Jurong Island

manufacturing hub.

The post-combustion carbon capture proposal will be

co-funded by the Singapore Energy Market Authority.

GE Vernova's ( GEV ) first carbon capture assessment in Singapore is

aimed at improving the proposed carbon capture process and

reducing its impact on the power plants' output, performance and

costs, said Ramesh Singaram, president and CEO of GE Vernova's ( GEV )

Gas Power business in Asia Pacific.

Singapore aims to reach net-zero emissions by 2050 by

driving renewable technology projects in various sectors,

including power generation.
