Details
In June 2020 the Prime Minister announced up to £100 million of
new research and development funding to help develop direct air
capture technologies in the UK. As part of this, the innovation
competition seeks to support the development of Greenhouse Gas
Removals (GGR)
technologies to help them achieve commercialisation. To meet net
zero by 2050 direct air capture and other greenhouse gas removals
technologies are necessary to offset emissions from hard to
tackle areas, such as parts of the agriculture and aviation
sectors.
Phase 1
Phase 1 is closed to applications. Read details of the
successful projects.
Phase 2
Phase 2 is open for applications and closes on 27 January 2022.
Only successful Phase 1 applicants can be considered for further
funding in Phase 2.
Phase 2 of the competition takes forward the most promising
designs from Phase 1, to pilot key components or further develop
the design of the new direct air capture and other greenhouse gas
removals technologies.
Read the Phase 2 guidance for further information on how to
apply.
