This grant is for Front-End Engineering Design (FEED) studies focused on advanced Direct Air Capture (DAC) systems. The initiative aims to develop and refine technologies capable of removing a minimum of 5,000 net tonnes of carbon dioxide from the atmosphere annually, based on comprehensive life cycle analysis. Proposals should demonstrate the feasibility and design of DAC systems suitable for either long-duration carbon storage or effective carbon dioxide conversion and utilization. The funding targets innovative solutions that integrate seamlessly with existing low-carbon energy sources, accelerating the deployment of large-scale carbon removal infrastructure to combat climate change.
