CO2 capture by DAC planned projects 2030

There are currently 16 DAC facilities in advanced development or under construction worldwide. Should all these projects go ahead, DAC deployment would reach around 4.7 MtCO₂ per year by 2030. However, to get on track with the Net Zero Emissions by 2050 scenario, DAC deployment will need to reach 75 MtCO₂ per year by 2030.

CO₂ capture capacity by direct air capture (DAC) of planned projects worldwide from 2024 to 2030, by stage (in million metric tons of CO₂ per year)

Supplementary notes

NZE = Net Zero Emissions by 2050 Scenario. ‘’Early development’’ includes around 100 facilities recently announced by 1PointFive and Carbon Engineering (target operation year: 2035), for which locations and fate of carbon (storage or use) have not yet been finalized.
