Hello,
World's first solar-powered carbon capture systems could help remove tonnes of CO₂
"A solar-powered machine capable of sucking CO2 from the atmosphere could help us alleviate some of our climate woes. The technology was developed by a carbon dioxide capture company called AspiraDAC, with its first customer, global financial
infrastructure company Stripe, aiming to install it this year.
Stripe purchased the system through Frontier, a partnership between Alphabet, Shopify, Meta, and McKinsey. In case you missed it, Frontier plans to invest $925 million in carbon removal technology over the next nine years to encourage the development of
carbon removal technologies.
Meanwhile, AspiraDAC will deploy roughly 180 of the machines to capture and store 500 tonnes of CO2 by 2027 at an agreed-upon $1,000 per tonne."
In 2020, we sent 40 billion metric tons (t) of carbon dioxide into Earth's atmosphere. We need to cut that number to 0 by 2050 if we are to avoid the worst consequences of climate change, according to the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC).
