šĀ Our second DAC plant is live ā as covered by BBC News! Say hello to the worldās first fully integrated DAC-to-building materials production process alongside O.C.O Technology and Department for Energy Security and Net Zero. šŖØ ā¬ļøĀ Get the full scoop ā¬ļø bbc.co.uk/news/articles/⦠#DirectAirCapture #NetZero
Concrete is one of the toughest sectors to decarbonizeābut companies like CarbonCure Technologies and Pan-United are showing itās possible. Bill Gates and Rodi Guidero had a chance to see the tech in action in Singapore: captured CO2, injected into concrete, cutting emissions at scale.
Most buildings leak energyāthrough windows, walls, and ducts. LuxWall, Inc. and @aeroseal_llc are helping tackle the 7% of emissions that come from buildings.
We visited Fervo Energy's Cape Station in Utah where advanced geothermal is being deployed at scale. Clean, firm, dispatchable power. 500MW. Zero emissions. This is what progress looks like. Thanks Tim Latimer and Jack Norbeck for the tour, and to Senator John Curtis for joining us.
Utah is at the forefront of energy innovation, and Fervo Energy's Cape Station geothermal project in Beaver County is a powerful example of that progress. Americaās energy future can be affordable, reliable, and cleanāand geothermal will be a critical part of making that vision
We invested in Fervo Energy early because we saw the potential for this kind of real-world impact. Cape Station is proof theyāre delivering on it. bit.ly/3FKKnKD
The International Energy Agency is predicting an all-time high in energy investments in 2025. Itās no surprise to us. Capital is chasing opportunity, and weāre focused on filling those gaps with commercially available solutions. reut.rs/4kIArAK
Methane-eating microbes can help farms cut emissions and boost profits. In a pilot with Straus Family Creamery, Windfall Bio slashed >85% of methane from manure lagoons while creating organic fertilizer. bit.ly/4e8I7Kb
