Carbon Capturing in Squamish
Oct. 20, 2020
Founded in 2009, Carbon Engineering (CE) is a Squamish-based clean energy company focused on the deployment of Direct Air Capture (DAC) technology that captures carbon dioxide (CO2) directly from the atmosphere so it can be permanently stored deep underground or used to produce clean, affordable transportation fuels. From our pilot plant in Squamish, CE has been removing CO2 from the atmosphere since 2015 and converting it into fuels since 2017.
