Description
ExxonMobil’s Baytown project aims to build the world’s largest low-carbon hydrogen plant using natural gas with carbon capture. It plans to produce 1 billion cubic feet of hydrogen daily and sequester 10 million metric tons of CO₂ annually. The U.S. could lead the global hydrogen race with its infrastructure, gas supply, and policy support.

Microsoft is buying 1.4 million tonnes of carbon removal credits from Living Carbon’s reforestation work in Appalachia. The project restores former coal mine lands and delivers verified carbon offsets. It's backed by Isometric’s rigorous reforestation protocol for tracking impact.
U.S. Energy acquired 2,300 acres in Montana to expand its carbon capture and helium production operations. The deal includes a permitted Class II injection well for CO₂ storage tied to a new gas processing facility. This move strengthens its CCUS infrastructure and supports low-emission gas development.
SeaCURE is a UK pilot project pulling carbon directly from ocean water using a closed-loop, solar-powered system. Though small now, it could eventually remove billions of tons of CO₂ annually. The team is testing safe, scalable methods to expand ocean-based carbon removal globally.
Anaergia signed a binding agreement with Capwatt to build nine biomethane plants across Portugal, Spain, and Italy. The facilities will process agro-industry waste to produce 556,000 MWh of biomethane annually. This deal strengthens their existing partnership and supports Europe’s green energy goals.
Cascade, with partners like Google and Frontier, awarded $1.2M in grants to 9 projects advancing enhanced rock weathering (ERW) science. The research focuses on carbon storage through soil processes, mineral phase formation, and tracking weathering products. These global collaborations aim to scale ERW as a credible carbon removal solution.
Cummins launched its next-gen Battery Energy Storage Systems (BESS) in Dubai to support cleaner energy use across key industries. The system is designed for backup power, grid stability, and renewable integration. This move aligns with Cummins' broader energy transition goals, including future hydrogen solutions.
