0

Carbon credits rating agency BeZero Carbon has awarded Swiss carbon removal specialist Climeworks with its first ever AAA rating.

Specifically, Climeworks received the rating for its Orca plant. Launched in September 2021, the plant is believed to be the world’s first and largest direct air capture (DAC) and storage plant.

The facility is made up of eight collector containers, with an annual capacity of around 500 tonnes each. Collectively, the containers give the plant a total capture capacity of up to 4,000 tonnes of carbon dioxide (CO2) per annum.
