Direct Air Capture CSR: Climate Tech for CO2 Removal

Direct Air Capture

Objective

• Tackle climate change from industrialization and globalization, especially rising CO2 emissions, mainly from small emitters like transport. Develop efficient CO2 capture methods to align with global efforts, including the Paris Agreement's net-zero emissions goal by 2050 and India's target by 2070, due to its coal power dependence, ensuring future generations' protection

Description

• Develop and scale Direct Air Capture (DAC) technology, similar to an artificial tree, to capture CO2 globally. Build a working prototype, scale to a pilot plant for optimization, establish a cost per ton of CO2 captured, and drive innovation. Ultimately, this project aims to contribute to India's carbon capture targets and combat climate change towards achieving net carbon neutrality.

Impact

• This project initiates innovation and research in Direct Air Capture (DAC), aiming to establish India's first DAC plant and meet carbon capture targets. Large-scale DAC can significantly combat climate change and achieve net carbon neutrality, offering a sustainable and climate-resilient future.
