Global Thermostat

Founded in 2010, Global Thermostat is working to commercialize its unique, multi-patented portfolio of solutions for capturing and removing CO2 directly from the atmosphere to address climate change and power the growing circular carbon economy. Its goal is to develop the least resource intensive, lowest cost solution to resolve the climate threat through Direct Air Capture.

Global Thermostat’s mission is to continually innovate and globally deploy the world’s best direct air capture technologies. With our multi-patented portfolio of solutions for capturing and removing CO2 directly from the atmosphere, Global Thermostat is working to help restore Earth’s climate by reducing carbon dioxide at a global scale for the benefit of all.

Global Thermostat’s technology works by pulling ordinary air over a highly porous substrate coated with materials that bind to carbon dioxide. It then applies low-cost, low-temperature steam, which is widely available, to separate out the carbon dioxide for sequestration or commercial use.

The company’s technology and product development team operates from the Global Thermostat Technology Center in Brighton, Colorado, with state-of-the-art testing and analytic capabilities. There we are refining the performance of our continuously operating Direct Air Capture pilot plant, while preparing to scale up the technology for larger applications.
