Montreal-based Deep Sky has captured and permanently removed carbon dioxide from the atmosphere at its Alpha facility in Innisfail, Alberta, marking what it says are North America’s first certified direct air capture carbon removal credits. The credits were independently reviewed and registered by Isometric and will be delivered to Microsoft and Royal Bank of Canada under an agreement running through 2034.
Deep Sky, a tech-agnostic carbon removal developer, began the Alberta facility in 2024 and is testing multiple DAC technologies before scaling commercial operations. CEO Alex Petre called the milestone a proof point for building and delivering measurable carbon removal.
