Nature – Gutsch & Leker (2024): Co-assessment of costs and environmental impacts for off-grid direct air carbon capture and storage systems
Moritz Gutsch, Jens Leker IN: Communications Engineering, 3, 14, https://doi.org/10.1038/s44172-023-00152-6
Here the authors present a cost model and life cycle assessment for several combinations of off-grid DACSs, powered by photovoltaic (PV) energy and heat pumps combined with battery storages to mitigate intermittency of the PV energy source. Utilization factors of DACSs are estimated for different locations, power of PV systems and battery capacities.
