The federal Cooperative Agreement award, titled "THE SWEETWATER CARBON STORAGE HUB (SCS HUB)", is funded by the U.S. Department of Energy's Office of Fossil Energy and Carbon Management under the Fossil Energy Research and Development (CFDA 81.089) program. The $54,128,128 award, granted on August 15, 2024, aims to capture and store carbon from a proposed direct air capture facility and a soda ash mine in the Rocky Mountains. The key products and services to be delivered under this...

The National Science Foundation awarded a $275,000 Project Grant to Carbon Solutions LLC under the NSF Technology, Innovation, and Partnerships program (CFDA 47.084). The grant will support development of a decision-support tool to identify carbon dioxide capture opportunities across the United States energy sector from 2023-2024. The tool aims to facilitate the country's transition to net-zero carbon emissions through profiling capturable CO2 streams and providing the break-even capture cost,...

This Cooperative Agreement award from the Department of Energy's Office of Fossil Energy and Carbon Management (CFDA 81.089 - Fossil Energy Research and Development) provides $22,532,805.00 in funding to Arizona State University to execute planning activities and complete a front-end engineering design (FEED) study for a regional direct air capture (DAC) hub in the Southwest United States. The hub is intended to have an initial capacity of at least 50,000 tonnes of carbon dioxide (CO2) per year,...

The U.S. Department of Energy's (DOE) Office of Fossil Energy awarded a $3,585,569 Cooperative Agreement to Fervo Energy Company to establish a geothermal energy-driven direct air carbon capture and sequestration hub in southwest Utah. The project, funded under the DOE's Conservation Research and Development program (CFDA 81.086), aims to identify sites where there is a strong overlap between geothermal resource potential and geologic conditions suitable for large-scale carbon storage. The...

This Cooperative Agreement award of $6,104,774 was granted on August 26, 2024 by the U.S. Department of Energy's Office of Fossil Energy and Carbon Management under the Fossil Energy Research and Development (CFDA 81.089) program. The objective of this feasibility study is to (1) assess, de-risk and validate a portfolio of direct air capture (DAC) technologies, (2) explore opportunities to optimize the balance of plant for economies of scale, and (3) assess the technical and commercial viability...

This National Science Foundation (NSF) Technology, Innovation, and Partnerships (CFDA 47.084) Project Grant award of $275,000 to Rushnu Inc. will develop a commercially viable continuous carbon capture and mineralization system. The project aims to improve the single-pass capture and mineralization rate and optimize solvent recovery to enable cost-effective capture of carbon dioxide (CO2) from industrial emission sources and transform it into value-added products. This will help the industrial...
