Svante Opens World’s First Carbon-capture Filter Gigafactory in Burnaby
AI Article Summary

Svante has inaugurated the world's first carbon-capture filter manufacturing facility in Burnaby, B.C., named the Redwood facility. This gigafactory, spanning 140,000 square feet, will produce enough filter modules to capture up to 10 million tonnes of carbon-dioxide annually by 2030. Supported by significant investments from both the Canadian government and various private investors, the facility aims to cater to heavy-emission industries and increase carbon management capacity. The establishment of this facility marks a critical step in bolstering domestic carbon-management solutions as global demand rises.
