Executive Summary
The global carbon dioxide removal market witnessed sharp growth from 2022 to 2023. This growth is attributed to the huge investment by the carbon credit buyers in the CDR industry to support the global initiatives for achieving net zero emissions. Some of these big deals are given below.In May 2023, JPMorgan Chase, an American multinational financial services firm, announced an investment of $200 million to support the development of CDR technologies. The partner companies include Climeworks, CO280 Solutions Inc., Charm Industrial and Frontier.
In November 2023, Microsoft Corp., an American technology company, announced an investment in numerous large-scale projects to support carbon dioxide removal as part of its targets to be carbon-negative by 2030 and to remove the equivalent of all its cumulative GHG emissions by 2050. The partner companies include Heirloom, Ørsted A/S, CarbonCapture, and Running Tide.
Other large-scale CDR deals include Charm Industrial’s $53 million long-term contract with Frontier and a CDR purchase contract between Mitsubishi Corp. and NextGen, among others.
Industry is the foundation for thriving and economic growth in societies. It must also be a central part of the clean energy transition, as the source of nearly one-quarter of CO2 emissions. Industry emissions can be one of the most difficult to reduce in the energy system, especially due to process emissions caused by chemical or physical reactions and the requirement for high temperatures. To address the decarbonization challenge in support of sustainable and competitive industries, a portfolio of technologies and approaches is needed. In this sustainable transformation, the capture, removal, storage and use of carbon is expected to play a critical role.
