Skytree’s VP of Strategy for APAC & North America, Elena Nikonova, PhD, is joining Cleantech Group Forum Asia in Singapore on May 20-21, to discuss the strategic co-location of Direct Air Capture (DAC) technology with energy infrastructure. Although the region has significant renewable energy potential, it currently lacks a decentralized and reliable supply of non-fossil CO₂, which is essential for the next generation of e-fuels and industrial applications. During her presentation, Elena will demonstrate how modular DAC serves as a crucial catalyst for enhancing supply chain autonomy, operational efficiency, and standardized scalability.

Skytree’s Chief Product Officer, Bjørn Utgård, is joining industry leaders during the European Hydrogen Infrastructure Summit 2026 in Frankfurt on May 7-8, to discuss how modular Direct Air Capture (DAC) technology can help de-risk the e-fuel supply chain. As the green hydrogen industry expands, securing a resilient and predictable CO₂ supply has become essential for developing a scalable e-fuel economy. Bjørn’s session will explore how Direct Air Capture (DAC) acts as the critical enabler for e-fuel synthesis by providing a sustainable and circular carbon feedstock. In addition, he will participate in a panel discussion on Advancements in fuel cells for the future of green mobility with Ebenezer Adebayo, PhD (Ulster University), Peter van Ees (ABN AMRO Bank N.V.), Joel Vogl (Infener AG), moderated by Pierre Wolf (Airbus Protect). This discussion will address a key challenge in Europe’s clean mobility transition, which is how to build the necessary hydrogen, CO₂, and e-fuel infrastructure for scalable deployment. #EngineeringTheCO2Transition #DirectAirCapture #PowerToX #EnergyTransition #Cleantech

𝗗𝗶𝗿𝗲𝗰𝘁 𝗔𝗶𝗿 𝗖𝗮𝗽𝘁𝘂𝗿𝗲 (𝗗𝗔𝗖): 𝗘𝗻𝗮𝗯𝗹𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝘀𝘆𝘀𝘁𝗲𝗺 𝗶𝗻𝗻𝗼𝘃𝗮𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻 𝗳𝗼𝗿 𝗮 𝗻𝗲𝘁-𝘇𝗲𝗿𝗼 𝗴𝗿𝗶𝗱 Last week Skytree’s CEO Rob van Straten, participated in the EY Renewable Energy Day to discuss why Direct Air Capture (DAC) technology provides an essential link between renewable power and industrial CO₂ needs. As we scale toward net-zero, DAC technology is evolving from a peripheral technology to a foundation of the new energy landscape—enabling system innovation by transforming how we manage carbon as a resource and how we balance the grid:  • 𝗔 𝗳𝗹𝗲𝘅𝗶𝗯𝗹𝗲 𝗴𝗿𝗶𝗱 𝗮𝘀𝘀𝗲𝘁: Skytree's DAC units turn excess renewable energy into high-purity CO₂ for food production or carbon removal, helping to mitigate grid congestion.  • 𝗧𝗿𝘂𝗲 𝗰𝗶𝗿𝗰𝘂𝗹𝗮𝗿𝗶𝘁𝘆: While the Dutch greenhouse sector is a global leader, it relies on a volatile fossil CO₂ supply. Skytree offers a secure, on-site alternative source of CO₂ to ensure long-term viability for growers.  • 𝗦𝘁𝗿𝗮𝘁𝗲𝗴𝗶𝗰 𝗰𝗼-𝗹𝗼𝗰𝗮𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻: Co-locating DAC with Carbon Capture and Storage (CCS) allows us to recirculate carbon and achieve verifiable negative emissions at scale. A sincere thank you to EY for the opportunity to contribute to the Renewable Energy Day. It was a pleasure sharing the stage with fellow panelists Paul van den Broek (LeydenJar) and Simon Bushell (Sympower), which was moderated by Jan Peter Balkenende.

𝗧𝗵𝗲 $𝟭𝟬𝟬/𝘁𝗼𝗻 𝗗𝗔𝗖 𝗺𝘆𝘁𝗵 The Direct Air Capture industry often clings to a single number: $100 per ton. However, as a universal benchmark, it is misleading. Levelized Cost of Captured CO₂ (LCoCO₂) isn't a static hardware price. It is a project-specific systems metric. The right LCoCO₂ calculation combines cost inputs (CAPEX and OPEX), financial assumptions like Capital Recovery Factor and the net amount of CO₂ captured. These factors do not operate independently: design choices in one area influence performance and cost elsewhere. LCoCO₂ is therefore the result of a system architecture versus a standalone equipment price. We’ve broken down how to calculate a predictable LCoCO₂ in our latest analysis. The following variables illustrate why no single universal cost can apply to a DAC project.

The link between the energy transition and the CO₂ transition Skytree’s VP of Strategy for North America and APAC, Elena Nikonova, PhD, is joining more than 1,600 energy leaders during the Future of Utilities Energy Transition Summit in Amsterdam on March 18-19 to discuss the critical role of atmospheric carbon in the transition to a net-zero economy. Elena’s keynote will explain the connection between the energy transition and the CO₂ transition. Even in the most ambitious scenarios, electricity can only cover 70% of energy demand - the other 30% must be met with synthetic circular molecules.The session will discuss how modular Direct Air Capture (DAC) technology can provide accessible carbon for Power-to-X applications and facilitate permanent storage.

Skytree Expands into Australia to Accelerate the APAC CO₂ Transition  We are officially entering the Australian market, marking a significant milestone in our mission to facilitate the global CO₂ transition. This expansion follows a strategic trade mission with Australian Trade and Investment Commission (Austrade), and a keynote presentation by our CEO, Rob van Straten, at the EXA - Energy Exchange Australia conference in Perth. Australia’s abundant renewable energy resources and vast landscapes create an ideal environment for our modular Direct Air Capture (DAC) technology. Our solutions provide a decentralized and reliable source of CO₂ to support several key sectors, including:  • 𝗣𝗼𝘄𝗲𝗿-𝘁𝗼-𝗫 𝗮𝗻𝗱 𝗲𝗦𝗔𝗙: Supplying resilient CO₂ for synthetic fuels and the Australia-Netherlands Hydrogen Corridor.  • 𝗛𝗼𝗿𝘁𝗶𝗰𝘂𝗹𝘁𝘂𝗿𝗲: Boosting yields in regional agricultural hubs with on-site CO₂.  • 𝗗𝗿𝗶𝗻𝗸 𝗖𝗮𝗿𝗯𝗼𝗻𝗮𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻: Delivering a circular, fossil-free CO₂ source for the food and beverage industry.  • 𝗖𝗮𝗿𝗯𝗼𝗻 𝗥𝗲𝗺𝗼𝘃𝗮𝗹: Enabling large-scale permanent geological storage. To lead our efforts in the region, we have appointed Ameen Bou Diab as Senior Project Development Manager APAC, based in Sydney. By providing a reliable source of atmospheric carbon, we are helping Australia achieve its net-zero targets and secure its fuel independence for the future.

Last week in Amsterdam, key players from across the Power-to-X ecosystem came together to tackle a shared challenge: how to turn ambition around circular e-fuels and chemicals into a coordinated national roadmap, and shape the future of the Dutch Power-to-X value chain. A few key themes stood out across the discussions: 𝗠𝗼𝗹𝗲𝗰𝘂𝗹𝗲𝘀 𝗮𝘀 𝗮 𝗻𝗲𝗰𝗲𝘀𝘀𝗮𝗿𝘆 𝗽𝗶𝗹𝗹𝗮𝗿: Even in the most progressive electrification scenarios, roughly 30% of energy demand must still be met by molecules. Power-to-X is critical because it converts renewable electricity into these essential clean molecules. 𝗥𝗲𝘁𝗮𝗶𝗻𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗴𝗮𝘁𝗲𝘄𝗮𝘆 𝗹𝗲𝗮𝗱𝗲𝗿𝘀𝗵𝗶𝗽: The Netherlands has traditionally served as Europe's energy gateway. As we shift toward renewables, Power-to-X offers a unique opportunity to maintain this leadership by becoming a hub for clean, sustainable molecules and e-fuels. 𝗔 𝘀𝘆𝘀𝘁𝗲𝗺𝘀 𝗮𝗽𝗽𝗿𝗼𝗮𝗰𝗵 𝘁𝗼 𝗶𝗻𝘃𝗲𝘀𝘁𝗺𝗲𝗻𝘁: Establishing our position requires system-based investment strategies with a focus on return on innovation. We must prioritize funding demonstration projects and pilots, and large-scale infrastructure investments, combining public and private capital to build a bankable, resilient supply chain. We’re bringing these and other insights together in a co-authored industry whitepaper that will outline a practical roadmap for a Dutch-led Power-to-X value chain.
