Brineworks has secured €5 million in seed funding, led by SeaX Ventures, to bring its ultra low-cost Direct Air Capture technology to market. With operations expected by 2026, the company is positioned to deliver durable, renewable-based carbon removal at scale.
Capsol Technologies has been awarded its first carbon capture study for a European metal production plant, evaluating the use of its CapsolEoP® end-of-pipe solution. The project could capture several hundred thousand tonnes of CO₂ annually in one of the world’s most carbon-intensive sectors.
The Carbon Removers are scaling biogenic carbon capture and storage (BECCS) in Scotland, capturing CO₂ from distilleries and biogas facilities for mineralization into building aggregates and long-term storage. Partnering with Mangrove Systems, they have embedded robust measurement, reporting, and verification (MRV) to ensure every tonne removed is fully traceable and verifiable.
Microsoft’s Climate Innovation Fund has invested in Fortera to scale production of its ReAct™ low-carbon cement, securing rights to procure cement and environmental attribute certificates. The funding supports the construction of Fortera’s first full-scale 400,000 ton-per-year commercial plant.
GE Vernova and Deep Sky announced an agreement to deploy GE Vernova's Direct Air Capture (DAC) technology at Deep Sky Alpha in Alberta, Canada, marking a major step toward commercial-scale carbon removal. The system, scheduled to begin operations in 2026, will capture up to 1,500 tonnes of CO₂.
