Offshore wind-powered CO₂ direct air capture coupled with deep-water, submarine basalt reservoirs has the potential to offer a reliable way to permanently store CO₂ while avoiding grid-energy and land-use competition. This paper analyzes the incorporation of a DAC system into a reference floating wind turbine (FWT) concept, the IEA 15 MW RWT atop the UMaine VolturnUS-S semi-submersible.
