Plain English summary
DESNZ is forming a coalition to drive innovation in carbon capture and greenhouse gas removal, aiming to halve the cost of direct air capture and point-source carbon capture. UK-based organisations, including technology developers, manufacturers, and investors, are invited to apply. This is a non-financial opportunity to collaborate with industry and government, shaping the challenge activities and sharing knowledge. A separate call for "Innovation Champions" (technology developers receiving non-financial support) is expected in Autumn 2026.
