About us
GREENCAP SOLUTIONS AS
GreenCap Solution is a groundbreaking DAC technology provider for sustainable food production and industrial applications.
DIRECT AIR CAPTURE (DAC)
Meeting the world’s climate objectives in reversing climate change.
AGRICULTURE
Allowing sustainable and bio-economical solution for agriculture in greenhouses and vertical farming.
GreenCap Solutions is the product of 30 years of experience in mechanical and process industry by the three inventors of the technology: Tor Christensen, Tom Johansen and Jarle Skjæveland. The three inventors founded GreenCap Solutions in cooperation with the Norwegian industrial group of companies, BR Industries, in March 2016. The establishment of the company came as a direct response to overall global initiative from the 1st climate meeting held in Paris, December 2015.
Our proven and patented technology
GreenCap’s DAC technology has already been tested and proven in connection with greenhouse industry, together with our environment control system (ECS). Where our ECS provides a unique combination of sustainable, efficient, and clean eco-system control to the global agriculture technology (AGTECH), our DAC technology allows it to be carbon neutral by replacing fuel-based CO2 with CO2 that is captured directly from the air.
