Scalable Carbon Capture Technology - Putting a Price on Carbon

The energy transition is an ‘all-hands-on-deck’ journey. As we know, there is no silver bullet or golden ticket that will get us to where we need to be. Just like our economy, it is compiled of complex systems, smaller markets, and key stakeholders. Another thing about our economy? It is always in a state of motion. Moving from one system to the next - carbon is an invisible stakeholder that is singlehandedly the backbone of modern society. In the past two decades, we have begun to rapidly recognize that the management of carbon is more essential, visible, and crucial than we previously thought.

In today's episode of the Interchange Recharged we have an eye-opening conversation with Claude Letourneau the CEO of trailblasing carbon capture company, Svante. Claude shares with us his plans and goals for building a carbon capture and sequestration infrastructure that is comparable to what the tech industry looks like today. Claude believes that carbon capture and management will play a large part in moving the energy transition forward and tells us why Svante’s technology has the possibility of creating real tangible results.

Throughout this episode, we cover the key topics regarding the scalability of carbon capture technology and what the future for Svante looks like. Claude helps describe to our listeners the process of putting a price on carbon, creating a carbon marketplace, and some of the biggest barriers facing carbon capture technology today. Listeners should expect some of the following questions. How much does carbon capture cost? What do the tech industry and carbon management have in common? How does Hydrogen play a role in carbon capture, and what makes this technology different than competitors' from previous years?
