Quaise Energy, Inc. raises a $134.0M Series B roundQuaise Energy, Inc.WebsiteSource

Quaise develops millimeter wave drilling systems for deep geothermal heat access. Our technology is the only approach in the world with the potential to build geothermal wells at unprecedented depths and temperatures. By targeting depths up to 20 kilometers and temperatures up to 500 degrees Celsius, we will have the ability to build clean electric generation and heat distribution plants within a short distance of every major population and industrial center on the planet, at a fraction of the footprint of other renewables. And by scaling through the established supply base of the fossil fuel industry, we will be able to achieve the terawatt-level annual deployments that will be required to successfully decarbonize our global energy system.

Captura raises a $53.5M Other roundCapturaWebsiteSource

The ocean is an immensely powerful force of nature, and our greatest ally to reverse the tides on climate change. By studying the planet’s natural cycles, Captura designed a solution that removes CO2 from the ocean and harnesses its ability to heal the climate—a process known as Direct Ocean Capture. Developed and proven in Caltech’s laboratories, our unique Direct Ocean Capture technology runs with just two ingredients: seawater and renewable electricity. It extracts CO2 directly from seawater to be permanently stored or reused. This amplifies the natural equilibrium between the ocean and atmosphere, drawing carbon out of the air and into the ocean to rebalance. Captura’s approach requires no rare-Earth minerals, adds nothing to the ocean, and leaves no chemicals behind. It’s a low-cost, large-scale carbon removal solution that is environmentally sound.
