The global spotlight is turning towards innovative climate solutions, and The Carbon Removers have just been featured on CNN for our groundbreaking work in capturing CO₂ emissions from whisky production. This recognition marks a major milestone in our mission to scale carbon removal technologies while supporting Scotland’s iconic whisky industry.
Whisky and CO₂: A Hidden Challenge
Scotland’s whisky industry is steeped in tradition, but it also comes with a hidden environmental issue, significant CO₂ emissions during fermentation. Until now, these emissions were simply released into the atmosphere. Our work at The Carbon Removers changes that narrative by capturing and repurposing biogenic CO₂, ensuring that whisky production can remain both sustainable and profitable.
CNN’s Spotlight on Our Work
CNN’s latest feature highlights our collaboration with Whyte & Mackay’s Invergordon distillery, where we are capturing CO₂ directly from the whisky fermentation process. This CO₂ is then either utilised in industries such as dry ice manufacturing or permanently sequestered in building materials or underground to contribute to global carbon removal targets.
Key Highlights from the CNN Feature:
A scalable carbon removal model: Our technology ensures that emissions from whisky production are no longer a liability but an asset.
Partnerships for impact: By working with whisky giants like Whyte & Mackay, we demonstrate how traditional industries can integrate cutting-edge climate solutions.
A vision for the future: As part of our expansion plans into Scandinavia we aim to remove over 50,000 tons per annum from 2026 positioning us a leader in biogenic carbon removal.
