Breaking ground on the world's largest DAC facility

On Friday, April 28, we held a groundbreaking ceremony for our first-of-its-kind DAC facility, STRATOS. 1PointFive was joined by project partners from Oxy, Carbon Engineering and Worley for the shovel turn.
The first stage of construction, which includes site preparation and road work, has already begun and startup is expected in mid-2025. Once fully operational, STRATOS is expected to capture up to 500,000 metric tonnes of carbon dioxide per year.
The facility’s name, STRATOS, is a nod to the natural systems the project seeks to protect and restore. DAC is a technology that captures and removes large volumes of CO₂ directly from the atmosphere, which can be safely and securely stored deep underground in geologic formations. DAC provides a practical solution for hard-to-decarbonize activities, such as air travel, to help achieve climate goals.
