The legal challenge against the project, led by climate campaigner Andrew Boswell, was dismissed on Wednesday. The power station, a joint venture between BP and Equinor, will be equipped with carbon capture and storage technology to reduce emissions.

BP welcomed the ruling, highlighting the plant’s contribution to the UK’s net zero targets and energy security.
