The U.S. Department of Energy has selected the TerraSpark Energy Campus to receive up to $18.5 million in federal funding to support development of a 1.6-gigawatt coal-fired power facility with carbon capture technology in West Virginia. The project is expected to advance engineering and permitting work while supporting energy production, carbon management and job creation.
The Global Cement and Concrete Association and the Global CCS Institute have signed a two-year partnership agreement to accelerate the deployment of carbon capture and storage technologies across the global cement and concrete industry through collaboration on policy, technical knowledge sharing and stakeholder engagement.
Aalborg Portland has signed an agreement with the Danish Energy Agency to receive a carbon capture subsidy of up to approximately EUR 2.2 billion over 15 years for its ACCSION carbon capture and storage project. The project is expected to capture up to 1.25 million tons of CO₂ annually from 2030 and represents a major step in Cementir Holding’s path toward net-zero emissions.
Mazda successfully demonstrated onboard CO₂ capture and storage during the Super Taikyu Series 2026, capturing 804 grams of CO₂ over a 24-hour race. The achievement marks a significant step toward practical application of the technology and Mazda’s goal of realizing carbon-negative mobility by 2035.
Holcim has launched CaptureLab, the cement industry's first industrial-scale carbon capture test platform, in Martres-Tolosane, France. The 2,500-square-meter facility uses an open innovation model to allow manufacturers, startups and researchers to test and validate advanced capture technologies in real-world conditions. The platform launches with an initial pilot project in partnership with Air Liquide.
