The Australian Government is supporting new ways to capture carbon dioxide and put it to use, to help reduce emissions from hard-to-abate industries and advance Australia’s net zero transformation. Through the Carbon Capture Technologies Program, the government is investing $65 million in 7 projects that will use emerging technologies to decarbonize hard-to-abate industrial processes and directly remove carbon dioxide from the atmosphere.
Carbon Capture LLC announced significant progress in its revolutionary carbon capture solution, developed in collaboration with Haydale Graphene Industries plc. Following a successful feasibility study, Carbon Capture has completed a prototype device leveraging Haydale's proprietary plasma functionalized graphene. The study demonstrated the efficacy of capturing carbon dioxide from the atmosphere using this innovative technology.
The Acorn Carbon transport and storage project, a project that aims to capture, transport and safely store CO2 emissions from across Scotland, will be granted £2 million from the Scottish Government.
Air Liquide's large scale CO₂ liquefaction technology, Cryocap™ LQ, has been selected by Stockholm Exergi to contribute to its Bio-Energy Carbon Capture & Storage (BECCS) project. The CO₂ liquefaction solution allows to transport CO₂ over long distances to carbon sinks for permanent storage, contributing to the viability of CCS projects and emergence of a low-carbon industry.

Consortium Aims to Bring Direct Air Capture to California California is leading the way in setting ambitious decarbonization goals and driving innovative solutions and cross-sector collaborations to address climate change. To help meet this need, a consortium of more than 40 organizations across industry, technology, academia, national labs, community, government, and labor was formed by Carbon TerraVault Holdings, LLC (CTV), a subsidiary of California Resources Corporation, to pursue Department of Energy (DOE) funding under its Regional Direct Air Capture (DAC) Hubs initiative to create the California DAC Hub, the state’s first full-scale DAC plus storage (DAC+S) network of regional hubs. In August 2023, the consortium was selected to receive $11.8 million in funding from the DOE, the largest amount of funding allocated to a California DAC project through this initiative. The first hub is targeted to launch in Kern County, California and the consortium will look to expand to other locations across the state.

Feeding and Powering the World
Carbon Capture, Utilization, and Storage: Securing North Dakota’s Energy Future Two core economic pillars of North Dakota are the energy and agriculture industries. However, both industries are historically carbon-intensive, meaning that a lot of carbon is generated during specific processes associated with these industries. Managing global carbon emissions is one of the most pressing environmental concerns of our time. Many scientists are concerned that anthropogenic (human-made) greenhouse gases (GHGs) are affecting Earth’s climate. This concern is driving policies in the United States and around the globe, which are resulting in economic incentives and preferential financing for companies taking action to lower the carbon intensity of the commodities they produce. The challenge is to address anthropogenic GHG emissions while providing access to reliable, affordable, resilient energy and products. Carbon capture, utilization and storage (CCUS) is one of the best technologies to address the challenge to decarbonize these industries while we continue to feed and power the world and grow the economic contributions of these cornerstone industries to our state.
