Carbon Clean announced the official opening of its new Global Innovation Centre (GIC) in Navi Mumbai, India. The GIC will be one of the world’s largest dedicated carbon capture research facilities, spanning 77,121 square feet and housing two carbon capture plants alongside state-of-the-art laboratories for solvent development, analysis, and testing. It will serve as a hub for research, innovation, and technology demonstration.
Frontier has facilitated offtakes with Arbor, a Bioenergy with Carbon Capture and Storage (BECCS) company that uses waste biomass to create clean energy while removing CO2. These offtakes will enable the launch of Arbor’s first commercial facility and test the viability of a new, highly efficient BECCS approach for generating clean electricity and removing CO₂. The facility, located near Lake Charles, LA, is expected to become fully operational in 2028.
Hafslund Celsio announces the sale of 1.1 million tonnes of permanent carbon removals to Microsoft over a 10-year period. The agreement is a significant contribution to the commercial success of Hafslund Celsio’s full-scale CCS project in Oslo and is a recognition of the waste-to-energy sector as a credible provider of permanent carbon removals.
Bayou Bend, a joint venture between Chevron, Equinor, and TotalEnergies SE, is a carbon dioxide (CO₂) transportation and storage project in Southeast Texas. It’s designed to support key regional industries in reducing the carbon intensity of their operations. The goal is for Bayou Bend to serve as a central hub for CO₂ storage in the area.
The Global Centre for Maritime Decarbonisation has successfully completed the world’s first maritime pilot demonstrating the full value chain of onboard captured carbon dioxide in China on 25 June 2025. This cross-sectoral demonstration highlights how captured CO2 from ships can be repurposed for industrial applications, linking maritime decarbonisation efforts with broader land-based carbon ecosystem.
