Phlair\u2019s electrochemical system is uniquely designed to be load-flexible, helping stabilize stressed electricity networks while keeping the cost of CO\u2082 removal low. This synergy between carbon removal and grid support is key to scaling Direct Air Capture sustainably.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\">\n<p><strong>Eirik Lilledahl, founder and chairman of Carbon Removal<\/strong> \u201cWe strongly believe in the prospects of DAC in Norway and the potential that DAC has as large-scale contributor to the fight against climate change.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cWe are excited to provide our load-flexible DAC technology for this European lighthouse project\u201d says <strong>Malte Feucht, CEO at Phlair.<\/strong> \u201cEurope is at a turning point and can become a leader in carbon management. We are laying foundation for large-scale, permanent carbon removal. Our ability to balance grid loads will accelerate and drive down cost for renewables in Norway. At the same time, we want to prove that cost efficient DAC is possible.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n<p>Phlair will supply its proprietary Hydrolyzer modules and deliver detailed engineering services, installation, commissioning, and ongoing support for the core technology. NorDAC will be responsible for the remaining infrastructure, the project development, and will be the operator.

The ambition of Carbon Removal is to scale the deployment of DAC rapidly. The focus is on Norway because of its natural comparative advantages, such as available infrastructure for CO<sub>2<\/sub>&nbsp;storage and a power grid fully based on renewables. The business model is partnership based, which includes seeking out the supplier of the best available technology in the market.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">About Phlair<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Phlair is revolutionizing carbon removal. With its unique hydrolyzer-based Direct Air Capture (DAC) technology, Phlair is enabling CO2 capture from ambient air: scalable and at low cost. Phlair\u2019s technology runs purely on solar electricity and employs a pH-swing mechanism for efficient CO2 capture and release. The captured CO2 is permanently stored or used for CO2-negative chemicals. The Munich-based company serves leading customers in carbon removal, including Google, McKinsey, JPMorganChase, Shopify, Stripe, H&amp;M, and Deep Sky. Currently, the company is gearing up for a larger &gt;20,000 tCO2\/year plant deployment by 2027.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The plant will be located next to the Northern Lights terminal for permanent storage of CO2.
