Skytree, Return Carbon, and EDF Renewables North America are joining forces to deliver transformative large-scale Direct Air Capture (DAC) facilities in Texas, with the goal of removing 500,000 tonnes of CO2 per year when sites become fully operational. With the first deployments starting in 2028, this partnership will operate the first wind-powered DAC park in Texas.

Skytree today announced the acquisition of Dutch direct air capture (DAC) startup ReCarbn. The acquisition will integrate ReCarbn’s intellectual property, most notably its innovation in filtration and sorbent circulation, into Skytree’s DAC product portfolio. In addition, all three ReCarbn co-founders — Guus Dubbink (CEO), Ewout Ruijs (CPO), and Sophia Hummelman (CCO) — will join the Skytree team, bringing unique expertise in research and development, product strategy, and commercial finance, respectively.

Skytree is proud to announce its role as the technology provider for Project Concho, the world’s first Direct Air Capture (DAC) Park powered entirely by wind energy. Located in Tom Green County, Texas, this pioneering project will combine Skytree’s advanced DAC technology with new wind power and onsite geological carbon storage to permanently remove CO₂ from the atmosphere.

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.

Together with FOTONIQ, Voltiris and Thermeleon we have won the "Dragons Den" pitch for the "Greenhouse of the Future" contest from Greenport West-Holland! We believe that in the greenhouse of the future, multiple innovations should be integrated systemically. By combining our strengths and developing plug-and-play solutions, we are creating a greenhouse that is future-ready—and will stay that way—from sustainable energy to smart CO₂ capture and optimal daylight & climate control.
