These airlines are working to turn CO2 from the air into solid stones underground
The airline industry’s first two players to enter into a long-term strategic alliance with the Swiss company Climeworks are Swiss International Air Lines (SWISS) and the Lufthansa Group.
The partners plan to collaborate to advance the expansion of Climeworks’ cutting-edge technology, which uses direct air capture, or DAC, to remove carbon dioxide (CO2) from the atmosphere.
The Lufthansa Group and swiss zurich, Climeworks’s inaugural airline partners, have inked a carbon dioxide removal deal that will propel them both closer to their aspirational sustainability goals. The new cooperation has provisions for obtaining additional carbon removal volumes in addition to its planned 2030 duration.
Climeworks is a world leader in the carbon removal industry with its direct air capture technology. A crucial technique for taking CO2 straight out of the atmosphere and burying it deep underground is called Deep Underground Storage (DAC). In order to meet its aggressive carbon emissions targets, the airline industry will need to leverage both DAC and further negative-emission technologies.
With large expansion aspirations, Climeworks now manages the largest DAC and carbon storage facility in the world, which is situated in Iceland.
Additionally, DAC technologies provide a scalable way to obtain atmospheric CO2 for use as a raw material in the production of sustainable aviation fuels (SAF), the next generation of synthetic fuels. Utilising these synthetic fuels is essential to the airline industry’s decarbonisation. Leading the charge in this area for the acceleration of these important fuel technologies are swiss and the Lufthansa Group.
