It seems that the reply to the question "Can we make fossil fuels Green?" is YES, but at what cost? An example is the Power station being constructed in Germany. It uses pure oxygen for burning and resulting CO2 is liquefied, transfered by trucks into underground cavities. Its capital cost? Many times higher than a "normal" Power station. However the cost of such stations is expected to get lower by experience.
If I manage to find the relevant article of the Technical Chamber of Greece, I will be able to give more info on this station.
