Desport et al. (2023): Deploying direct air capture at scale: how close to reality?

Desport, L., A. Gurgel, J. Morris, H. Herzog, Y-H.H. Chen, S. Selosse and S. Paltsev IN: Energy Economics, 129, 107244, doi: 10.1016/j.eneco.2023.107244

In this study, the authors employ an economywide model to more fully explore the potential role of DAC, considering the full range of cost estimates ($180-$1,000/tCO2), DAC units supplied by either dedicated renewables or grid electricity, and both the storage of captured CO2 (DACCS) or its utilization (DACCU) to produce fuels.
