Montreal-based carbon removal developer Deep Sky has completed North America’s first underground storage of carbon dioxide derived from direct air capture (DAC).

The gas was captured by Skyrenu, a Quebec-based DAC company, at Deep Sky Alpha’s Innisfail, Alberta carbon removal centre, which is powered by solar energy.
