At the Mainstream UK Summit, CMMSradio interviews Douglas Chan from Climeworks, a company using direct air capture machines in Iceland to suck CO₂ from the air and store it underground forever. These “giant vacuum cleaners” help corporations offset the final 2–5% of emissions to hit net-zero by selling carbon credits. Douglas explains how maintenance strategies for this brand-new tech are built from scratch and shares lessons from his oil & gas and Tesla days, including an eye-opening story of Elon Musk ripping out a multi-million-dollar assembly line overnight to iterate faster.Climeworks removes legacy CO₂ from the air in Iceland and sells carbon credits for net-zero goals.Direct air capture works anywhere—only needs air, not tied to factories.No existing maintenance manuals; practices are created in real time.Douglas’s background: oil & gas → Tesla manufacturing → Climeworks.Elon Musk story: tore out an entire failing Model 3 assembly line overnight to replace it fast.Thank you, Douglas Chan, for joining us to share your journey and the innovative technology #Climeworks is leveraging for our planet!
