CASE STUDY
As the carbon removal industry matures , data driven measurement and transparency are paramount . Commercial customers need to trust that the carbon credits they ’ re purchasing are tied to tangible carbon removal .
Deep Sky , a Montreal-based carbon removal project developer , is working on CO 2 assessment calculations with the real-world operational data .
Deep Sky has partnered with Mission Zero Technologies ( MZT ), a pioneer of high-efficiency Direct Air Capture ( DAC ) technology to deploy DAC facilities in Canada .
The partners will begin with a first-of-a-kind ( FOAK ) demonstration of the technology capturing 250 tons of CO₂ annually – with the aim to eventually build commercial facilities that capture between 100,000 and one million tons annually .
As the world ’ s first gigaton-scale carbon removal company , Deep Sky will operate a DAC system from Mission Zero Technologies as part of its Alpha Lab test facility .
The Mission Zero Technologies FOAK system will be located in Quebec in 2024 and will tap into the region ’ s vast reserves of renewable hydroelectric energy .
The partnership aims to validate the technology for commercial deployment in Canada as part of Deep Sky ’ s mission to develop Canada into a world-leading hub for carbon removal .
This FOAK plant follows successful demonstrations of Mission Zero ’ s technology as part of pilot and R & D work .
Mission Zero ’ s DAC process produces high-grade CO₂ and is entirely electrically powered .
ONCE CDR FACILITIES ARE
BUILT , DEEP SKY WILL INSTALL INSTRUMENTATION TO DETERMINE CO 2
