The U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) awarded $12.5MM to the University of North Dakota Energy & Environmental Research Center (EERC) for the Prairie Compass Direct Air Capture (DAC) Hub. In the first phase of the project, the team will perform an initial engineering study on the potential to economically scale DAC technology in North Dakota while also studying the number of direct U.S. jobs and other economic opportunities that Prairie Compass DAC Hub would create. If successful in its first phase, the Prairie Compass DAC Hub would be eligible to apply for additional DOE funds to support DAC+S deployment to capture and store 1 million metric tons of CO2 annually by 2030.
