EDF President Fred Krupp argues that electric power companies need to have a clear compliance obligation that ensures clean electricity will be deployed, and climate and local air pollution will be slashed. It’s the requirement itself that sets this type of policy apart from strategies that purely incentivize companies with payments – it’s what makes the CES a “standard.”

Early Deployment of Direct Air Capture with Dedicated Geologic Storage
Type: Report
Date: August 1, 2021
In recent years, carbon dioxide removal (CDR) technology has moved from theoretical concept to pilot scale, producing a handful of potentially scalable approaches for generating negative emissions by capturing carbon dioxide (CO2 ) from the atmosphere. This paper from EDF explores just one technology-based approach: direct air capture (DAC) with dedicated geologic storage, also known as direct air carbon capture and sequestration (DACCS).
