Direct Air Capture
Sizewell C and Associated British Ports plan to develop a direct air capture facility at the Port of Lowestoft
Sheffield University engineers and a US startup have developed a train carriage system that could capture carbon whilst a train is in motion
The programme will support four large-scale hubs that will each consist of a network of CO2 removal projects to help address the impacts of climate change
In the coming months, the Climate Change Committee may recognise that there are “big problems” with BECCS
Absorbents that capture CO2 directly from the air and hydrogen-powered boats are among the beneficiaries of the new investment
The projects are expected to support breakthroughs in understanding how to overcome the limitations of technologies that are currently available, including inefficient energy usage
The airline has chosen the DAC technology of a proposed plant in North East Scotland as an offsetting solution
The projects are designed to increase the amount of carbon dioxide captured and cut operational costs of direct air carbon technology
The proposed Sizewell C nuclear power project has secured £250,000 to develop technology that could potentially help it become ‘carbon-negative’
It has issued two ‘expression of interest’ proposals and is calling on companies with relevant expertise to come forward to help deliver the projects
