Regional Direct Air Capture Hubs
Funds four regional U.S. hubs that demonstrate and deploy direct air capture at scale.
The Regional Direct Air Capture Hubs Program, run by the U.S. Department of Energy's Office of Clean Energy Demonstrations (OCED), invests in building four large regional hubs that capture carbon dioxide straight from the air and then store or use it. Each hub links capture plants with transport and storage so the whole chain works as one system. The program was funded through the Bipartisan Infra…
Direct air capture, carbon dioxide removal, transport and storage, and the shared infrastructure that connects them into regional hubs.
