In 2021, Sizewell C’s consortium with Strata Technology, University of Nottingham, Atkins and Doosan Babcock began developing a heat-driven DAC technology for Carbon Dioxide (CO2) that could be scaled up and integrated with the Sizewell C power plant as part of the BEIS Direct Air Capture (DAC) and Greenhouse Gas Removal (GGR) innovation competition.

Phase 1 is complete and our summary report outlines the key findings and outcomes from the initial phase of the competition. The report focuses on research and development, technology and plant design, with the majority of the work undertaken by Strata’s team of process and mechanical engineers.

Phase 2 of the competition takes forward the most promising designs from Phase 1, and we look forward to progressing the project later in the year as we work towards supporting the UK in achieving the Government’s net-zero ambitions.
