The study has received grant funding from the US Department of Energy\u2019s DAC hub program, aligned with the US Department of Energy goal to establish large-scale carbon removal infrastructure and reinforce America\u2019s global competitiveness in clean energy technologies while creating jobs in the region. The partners share an ambition to assess potential for RepAir\u2019s technology and future scaling.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\">\n<p>&#8220;This project is another milestone in scaling next-generation carbon removal technology&#8221; said <strong>Amir Shiner, CEO of RepAir Carbon.<\/strong> &#8220;Through this agreement with two global energy leaders, we&#8217;re accelerating our transition to commercial-scale manufacturing. This will establish us as a key equipment supplier in an ambitious carbon removal project targeting hundreds of kilotons of annual capture capacity by 2030, in a market expected to reach hundreds of millions in value. The timing is significant, as we see major carbon management projects advancing globally, demonstrating growing market confidence in technological solutions for decarbonization.&#8221;<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n<p>Pelican\u2019s location in the U.S. Gulf Coast region allows access to extensive CO<sub>2<\/sub> capacity and established infrastructure. The location\u2019s humidity levels are optimal for the performance of RepAir\u2019s technology.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>RepAir&#8217;s technology represents a fundamental advance in carbon capture, consuming just 600 kilowatt-hours of electricity per ton of CO<sub>2<\/sub> removed &#8211; 70% less energy than conventional methods. The system operates without liquids or solvents at ambient temperature, making it ideal for mass manufacturing and deployment.<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-full is-resized\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"800\" height=\"450\" src=\"https:\/\/renewable-carbon.eu\/news\/media\/2025\/01\/0000053601_img4.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-157095\" style=\"aspect-ratio:1.7777777777777777;width:746px;height:auto\" srcset=\"https:\/\/renewable-carbon.eu\/news\/media\/2025\/01\/0000053601_img4.jpg 800w, https:\/\/renewable-carbon.eu\/news\/media\/2025\/01\/0000053601_img4-300x169.jpg 300w, https:\/\/renewable-carbon.eu\/news\/media\/2025\/01\/0000053601_img4-150x84.jpg 150w, https:\/\/renewable-carbon.eu\/news\/media\/2025\/01\/0000053601_img4-768x432.jpg 768w, https:\/\/renewable-carbon.eu\/news\/media\/2025\/01\/0000053601_img4-400x225.jpg 400w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">\u00a9 Mitsubishi Corporation<\/figcaption><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>About RepAir Carbon<\/strong>&nbsp;<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>RepAir is leading the transition to a carbon-negative future with a highly efficient, affordable and ultra-modular carbon capture solution.
