We are pleased to share that Klimate.co and Octavia Carbon are continuing our partnership, enabled by a purchase of almost 1,000 Tonnes of Direct Air Capture credits. This is especially exciting, as the total 950 tonnes enable Octavia to further scale, accelerating their development towards megatonne capacity. In turn, this enables Klimate to provide our clients with high quality DAC credits from the upcoming facilities. "We are really excited to continue our partnership with Octavia Carbon. Martin and the team are proving that engineered solutions have a huge role to play in removing emissions and with our investment we can help them scale to thousands of tonnes in the coming years. Beyond the direct climate impact, Octavia Carbon is putting Kenya firmly on the map as a place of strategic importance for carbon removal in the coming decades." – Simon Bager, PhD, CIO of Klimate In the words of Octavia Founder & CEO, Martin Freimüller; "As one of the largest-ever pre-purchases in CDR, this is a resounding milestone for Octavia Carbon and for DAC in Kenya. We are in the world's best place for DAC, thanks to our abundant renewable energy, geology & talent. Large-scale commitments like this are what allow us to unleash this potential and to push DAC down the cost curve at an unprecedented rate. We are honored to have the steadfast support of Klimate.co, a partner who believes in our work and shares our vision of positioning Kenya as the world's leading DAC hub." We are proud to work with Octavia Carbon at this stage of their journey as they are providing novel technology, the first of its kind in the global south. We look forward to the future of this strong partnership 🇩🇰🇰🇪 #carbonremoval #partnership #climateaction

I had the pleasure of attending the EU Cross Programme Workshop on Industrial Carbon Management hosted by CINEA - European Climate, Infrastructure and Environment Executive Agency. The Workshop looked at a number of CO2 projects supported by the three main EU funding programmes including the European Union ETS Innovation Fund. It aimed to connect and engage the research community and industry covering the whole CO2 value chain – CO2 capture, utilisation, CO2 transport networks and geological storage. It turned out to be a fascinating discussion with presentations from 5 Projects that had received funding from the EU. It became clear how important this funding was in supporting the development of these first, innovative carbon management projects. It also highlighted the challenges in trying to decarbonise and develop a viable commercial carbon management industry. O.C.O Technology Ltd’s joint project with Petronar SA and Alba Emissions Free Energy SA is privileged to have received funding from the European Union ETS Innovation Fund. Although not on a scale as some of the projects that presented at the Workshop, our project will see the construction and operation in Bilbao, Spain, of the first facility using O.C.O’s patented ACT technology outside of the UK. The funding our project has received from the European Union ETS Innovation Fund has allowed us to accelerate and deliver the benefits of using O.C.O’s patented ACT technology to capture carbon and support the reduction of green house gases much earlier than would otherwise have been possible. #InnovationFund #eufunded #europeancommission #carboncapture #sustainability #recycle

🌐 Exciting News in Green Tech! 🌿 The European Union has greenlit €902 million in aid for Swedish powerhouse Northvolt supporting the establishment of a cutting-edge electric vehicle battery plant in Germany! 🚗⚡ This move aligns with the EU's Green Deal Investment Plan, accelerating the green transition and reducing fuel dependencies. 🌍 Northvolt's project, located in a disadvantaged area, aims to build the world's most environmentally friendly battery, with significantly lower CO2 emissions, including a robust recycling process. 🔄 This aligns perfectly with the EU's vision for a sustainable future. 🏭 Northvolt's third battery gigafactory, "Northvolt Drei," with a colossal 60 GWh annual capacity, is set to rise in the German city of Heide.
