Stop Peak Cluster.

A 200 km pipeline, carrying CO₂ emissions, is proposed to run through Wirral to a new purpose-built AGI (above ground installation – a huge industrial complex) in Meols, before being transported offshore via pipeline.

The pipeline will run from industrial sites in Derbyshire and Staffordshire, through Cheshire and Wirral, and aims to transport 3 million tonnes of CO₂ emissions annually from cement and lime plants, with operations starting around 2032.

The Impact on our Lives

A multi-billion-pound project – heavily funded by taxpayers 

200km pipeline corridor 30–40m wide construction corridor causing widespread disruption 

Large-scale AGI (Above Ground Installation) heavily industrial sites 

AGIs spanning Chapel-en-le-Frith, Macclesfield, Holmes Chapel and Ellesmere Port 

AGIs might be 100m x 100m or more – multiple football pitches in size 

Block Valve Stations at regular intervals – up to 50m x 50m 

CO₂ transported and stored beneath the seabed – long term impacts uncertain

We mean business and we will not be standing still or wasting time. We are well equipped with the skills needed to represent, assist, and support the people in our communities and we will make it clear to all parties why these CCS plans should not continue or be implemented.
