Published 1 week, 2 days ago
Description

Pilot Energys Project Wallaby, in collaboration with Capture6, has completed Australias first direct air capture demonstration plant at Cliff Head, Western Australia. The facility, set to commence operations by mid-June, utilizes salty water from the sites carbon storage to capture carbon dioxide and produce fresh water, generating revenue from carbon credits and clean water. The three-month demo aims to capture 300kg of carbon dioxide daily, with potential to scale to 35,000 tonnes annually, contributing to Pilots broader plan for the Dongara Energy Centre, transforming an old oil and gas site into a clean energy and carbon solutions hub.
