A partnership has been announced by wholly owned subsidiary of Pentair Water Process Technology, Haffmans B.V. and energy storage company dCarbonX that will facilitate the UK and Ireland’s ambition to reach their net-zero carbon goal.
In the wake of the International Energy Agency (IEA) 2021 Global Energy Review publishing on its website that carbon dioxide emissions are to surge by 1.5 billion tonnes in 2021, the companies intend to combine their shared expertise in carbon extraction and sequestration technologies to help fight against climate change.
One such method of mitigating climate change is the use of carbon capture, utilisation and sequestration (CCUS). The Review referred to this method as being “the only group of technologies that contributes both to directly reducing emissions in critical economic sectors and to removing CO2 to balance emissions that cannot be avoided – a balance that is at the heart of net-zero emission goals.”
