In this Research Note, we examine CarbonQuest, a US startup that has developed a decarbonization solution that captures CO2 from buildings before it is emitted to the atmosphere. CarbonQuest Profile Founded in 2015, CarbonQuest, (formerly NextWatts, Inc.) is headquartered in Spokane, Washington with a commercialization team in New York City. The startup has developed a solution that captures CO2 from buildings, which is then liquified and transported to local businesses that need carbon for their production processes. They use point-source carbon capture technology, capturing CO2 before it is emitted from natural gas sources like CHP systems, fuel cells, and boilers, enabling immediate and effective decarbonization. They claim their Building Carbon Capture technology captures up to 95% of CO2 emissions onsite. It is designed for commercial buildings, campuses, and industrial facilities, with modular systems that can be installed indoors or outdoors. The captured carbon, liquified onsite, contributes to the circular economy in the region by being […]
