MESA, AZ – CarbonCapture has signed a lease agreement for an 83,000-square-foot industrial facility in Mesa, Arizona. At full capacity, the plant is expected to manufacture 4,000 modules per year, equivalent to two megatons of extraction capacity.
After a nationwide search, this site was chosen because of its central location, availability of clean energy and labor availability. Instrumental in CarbonCapture’s decision was the institutional support it received from the Arizona Commerce Authority, the Greater Phoenix Economic Council, Arizona State University and the Salt River Project.
The facility will employ 30 full-time employees and is expected to reach 400 by 2029. The plant will be located at 3437 S. Crismon Road in Mesa’s Elliot Road technology corridor, home to Apple, Google and Meta.
“We are proud that CarbonCapture will be establishing this new manufacturing facility, the first of its kind in the world, right here in Arizona. The facility represents an important milestone for Arizona, advancing our clean energy economy and creating skilled jobs to support Arizona’s fast-growing manufacturing industry,” said Governor Katie Hobbs.
Upon completion in 2025, CarbonCapture’s inaugural manufacturing plant will set a precedent for the company’s future plants, pioneering the production of its innovative modular system designed for mass production and seamless installation at various locations across the United States.
As the first of its kind for CarbonCapture and for the world, this plant marks a key step in the company’s commitment to scalable and flexible solutions in the DAC sector.
“We are excited that Arizona joins California, Wyoming and other states at the forefront of the U.S. DAC industry.
Arizona’s vibrant innovation ecosystem and commitment to clean technology made it the ideal location for our manufacturing center. As we grow our team here, we are committed to offering competitive salaries along with comprehensive benefits packages for all full-time staff,” said Adrian Corless, CEO of CarbonCapture Inc.
The CarbonCapture mill is the second statewide project announced by the company. The Wyoming-based Bison Project was selected for U.S. Department of Energy grants through the $3.5 billion Regional DAC Hubs program.
CarbonCapture was represented by Gary Horwitz of JLL and Jonathan Keyser and Ryan Steele of Keyser. The building owner, Eisenberg Company, was represented by Steve Larsen, Bill Honsaker and Jason Moore of JLL.
