Canadian developer Deep Sky has completed construction of Deep Sky Alpha, the world’s first carbon removal innovation and commercialization centre. Located in Innisfail, Alberta, the $40 million project was built in less than 12 months—a pace CEO Alex Petre called “unprecedented.”
Supported by Breakthrough Energy Catalyst, the facility will deploy up to 10 direct air capture systems, targeting 3,000 tonnes of CO2 removal annually. Early buyers include Microsoft and RBC. Engineering was led by BBA, with construction creating over 110 jobs. Commissioning has begun, with commercial operations expected this summer. The site positions Alberta as a carbon removal hub.
