Direct Air Capture of CO2: A Key Technology for Ambitious Climate Change Mitigation

2019

Scholarly Work

Mahdi Fasihi, Felix Creutzig, Cyril Jose Escopete Bajamundi

This article identifies identifies how the solar photovoltaic policies, particularly the Feed-in Tariff legislation in Germany and the manufacturing scale-up backed by guarantees in China, can accelerate a similar deployment of DAC.

Direct Air Capture of Carbon Dioxide – ICEF Roadmap 2018

2018

Think Tank Report

David Sandalow, Julio Friedmann, Colin McCormick, Sean McCoy

This roadmap explores the potential for direct air capture of carbon dioxide to contribute to climate mitigation (and provide feedstock for commercial processes).

The road to achieving the long-term Paris targets: energy transition and the role of direct air capture

2017

Scholarly Work

Adriana Marcucci, Socrates Kypreos, Evangelos Panos

This paper evaluates the potential role of direct air capture (DAC) in achieving the Paris Agreement temperature targets, as well as the resultant impact on policy costs and global energy consumption.

Barraso-Schatz Air Capture Amendment to S.2012 – The Energy Policy Modernization Act (EPMA)

2016

Proposed Legislation

Amendment to the Energy Policy Modernization Act (EPMA) that creates a prize system at the Department of Energy to support innovative technologies that remove carbon dioxide directly from the atmosphere.

Direct air capture of CO2 and climate stabilization: A model based assessment

2013

Scholarly Work

Chen Chen, Massimo Tavoni

This paper assesses the regional incentives in deploying DAC under different assumptions about international climate policy and introduces a “clean oil” market via DAC as a way to provide incentives to oil exporting countries.

Systems Analysis and Cost Estimates for Large Scale Capture of Carbon Dioxide from Air

2011

Scholarly Work

A.J. Simon, Naluahi B. Kaahaaina, Julio Friedmann, Roger D. Aines

This paper explores the resource intensity and major cost elements of direct air capture of carbon dioxide.

Climate Strategy with Co2 Capture from the Air

2005

Scholarly Work

David W. Keith, Minh Ha-Duong, Joshuah K. Stolaroff

This paper assesses the ultimate physical limits on the amount of energy and land required for direct air capture and describes two systems that might achieve air capture at prices under 200 and 500 $/tC.

2019

Think Tank Report

Energy Futures Initiative

This report provides a set of recommendations and detailed implementation plans for a 10-year, $10.7 billion research, development, and demonstration initiative in the United States to bring new pathways for technological CDR to commercial readiness.

The Legal Framework for Offshore Carbon Capture and Storage in Canada

2021

Scholarly Work

Romany M. Webb, Michael B. Gerrard

This paper provides a comprehensive analysis of legal issues associated with deploying an offshore DAC system, powered by offshore wind turbines, in Canadian waters and storing the captured carbon dioxide in sub-seabed rock formations.
