This Research Note explores the building integrated carbon capture business of Soletair Power, a Finnish startup founded in 2016. We examine how their Direct Air Capture (DAC) technology works and highlight their funding, strategic investors, and partnerships before commenting on the competitive landscape. Soletair Power Profile Soletair Power Company Profile, September 2024 Direct air capture (DAC) is a technology to extract CO2 directly from the atmosphere at any location, independent of any specific emission source. Soletair Power’s Direct Air Capture technology can be retrofitted into buildings’ ventilation (HVAC) systems. The integration enables lowering of building owners’ Scope 2 and tenants’ Scope 3 emissions, cuts operational energy costs, and allows the building to remove CO2 from the atmosphere. Captured CO2 can be permanently stored or utilized in a variety of applications, resulting in net negative buildings. For example, it can be used in the production of carbon-negative concrete or alternatively in the development of sustainable aviation fuel.  The temperature vacuum swing adsorption process is […]
