Removing CO₂ from the air

Direct air capture supports nature by scaling CO₂ removal

Trees are critical in the fight against climate change for their ability to remove CO₂ from the atmosphere. However, as land space is limited, we also need solutions like direct air capture. On 0.42 acres, our Orca plant can capture up to 4000 tons of CO₂ from the air annually.

Frequently asked questions

Can I deduct my CO₂ removal purchase from tax?

Businesses: For legal entities that are subject to a tax on earnings, the cost of CO₂ removal services may be considered as a business expense and therefore reduce taxable earnings. However, this depends on the applicable national and local laws as well as the specific circumstances of the entity setup and location. Please consult with your local legal or tax advisor for advice, including as regards specific circumstances. U.S. taxpayers can donate to Terraset, a 501c3 nonprofit, to make a tax-deductible donation here. More information on Terraset and the partnership with Climeworks can be found here.

Individuals: Direct purchase of Climeworks’ Carbon Dioxide Removal services isn’t tax-deductible because Climeworks provides a service in return for payment and is not a charitable organization. However, U.S. taxpayers can donate to Terraset, a 501c3 nonprofit, to make a tax-deductible donation here. More information on Terraset and the partnership with Climeworks can be found here.

Can I communicate about my Climeworks purchase?

You can use the content of both your order confirmation (upon purchase) and your delivery confirmation (upon delivery) documents for communication purposes. All communication must be in line with applicable industry standards and legal requirements on green marketing.

What has the progress been so far for scale-up?

Since Climeworks’ founding in 2009, we’ve reached several significant milestones in the scale-up of our direct air capture (DAC) technology. We built the very first commercial DAC plant in 2017, followed by the world’s largest DAC + storage plant, Orca, in 2021, which removes thousands of tons of CO₂ per year. In 2024, we unveiled Mammoth, the newest and largest DAC+S plant with the capacity to remove tens of thousands of tons annually. Learn more.

How long does it take to remove the CO₂?

In line with our plants' operation schedules, CO₂ removal orders are carried out within 6 years. That means 6 years from your one-off order or 6 years from each monthly subscription order. You’ll receive confirmation of delivery via email once this happens. Your contribution today helps to scale up our technology. In the future, we aim to deliver CO₂ removal much faster at a significantly lower cost. Have a look at our Terms & Conditions.
