DAC is notoriously energy intensive, potentially harming decarbonisation efforts in other industries by curtailing low-carbon energy towards carbon removal when emission reductions is the priority. However, the innovation frontline is demonstrating new ways to bypass large energy demands through approaches that use electrochemistry or integrate passive DAC. Alternatively, siting DAC in geographies where there is abundant renewable energy.
