TechCrunch features Skytree's latest funding round to support greenhouses

Published on 
June 13, 2023

Is sucking CO2 out of the air rocket science?

Maybe a little rocket science goes a long way in helping make direct air capture technology better.

Rob van Straten, in an exclusive with Climate Tech reporter, Tim de Chant of TechCrunch talks about the recent close of a $6 million seed round led by Horticoop , a cooperative fund investing in businesses that contribute to the horticulture industry, and The Yield Lab Europe, an international Agtech impact VC fund.

The injection of capital will help Skytree accelerate growth and deployment of our technology supporting Controlled Environment Agriculture organizations in their quest to provide food security for a growing population while reducing reliance on fossil fuel-based and unstable CO2 supply.

First results of the trial with Skytree’s Cumulus at the Bleiswijk Innovation Center

Kas als Energiebron has published the first results from Skytree's Cumulus trial at Bleiswijk Innovation Center and they match the industry's standard OCAP Pipeline System.

The unit has captured and supplied over 1,660 kg of CO₂ to cucumbers over 166 days. These are promising results for the future of DAC in Dutch greenhouse horticulture.
