CO2 and Iceland - EV Driven

Audi partnering with Climeworks on CO2 direct air capture and storage

Green Car Congress

SEPTEMBER 8, 2020

The Swiss company Climeworks is building the world’s largest direct air capture (DAC) and storage facility for converting atmospheric CO 2 to rock in Iceland. Climeworks’ new facility in Iceland transports the CO 2 filtered out of the air below the Earth’s surface, where natural processes then mineralize it.
