Supersonic aircraft company Aerion and direct air capture (DAC) company Carbon Engineering have joined forces to develop solutions for carbon neutral supersonic air travel.
The companies have signed a Memorandum of Understand (MoU) to explore ways in which Carbon Engineering’s synthetic fuel – made from carbon dioxide (CO2) captured from the atmosphere, water, and clean electricity – will power Aerion’s AS2 supersonic business jet.
By partnering, the two technology companies believe they can take a significant step forward in achieving the common goal of building clean energy transportation networks of the future.
“The fundamental value of fuels made from atmospheric CO2 is that they create a circular system of emissions,” said Steve Oldham, Carbon Engineering’s CEO.
