The companies said their partnership will "aim to enable the permanent removal" of 1 million tons/yr of CO2 from the air through 2030, with expansions potentially increasing that number in the future. They added that they have begun talking to local stakeholders and interested parties to develop "an informed community benefits plan" for the hub.
