Canadian carbon removal project developer Deep Sky has selected a site in Innisfail, Alta., to build the world’s first carbon removal innovation and commercialization centre.

The facility will be operational this winter and can capture 2,721 tonnes (3,000 tons) of CO2 per year. It will also include room for future expansion.

The centre is located inside a municipality-owned industrial park, which is adjacent to other proposed green projects, including a solar farm and waste-to-energy plant.

Deep Sky Labs’ mission is to accelerate the path to low-cost, low-energy intensity, and highly scalable carbon dioxide removal (CDR) to produce high-integrity carbon credits.
