This study investigates the adoption of DACCS in Iceland and the potential for diffusion into other contexts as a global decarbonization solution. The authors implement expert interviews to analyze the adoption of technology, and to identify the various requirements of scaling DACCS into local and global contexts. Using inductive thematic analysis, they characterize the diverging perspectives on the role of carbon dioxide removal as a climate mitigation solution and also identify pathways toward technology upscaling at national, regional, and global scales.
