Remora
Carbon capture for vehicles

What they do
Problem
Trains and trucks emit large amounts of CO2 and other harmful pollutants that are difficult to reduce quickly.
Solution
Remora installs onboard exhaust carbon-capture systems that extract and purify up to 90% of vehicle CO2 (while reducing soot, particulates, and NOx) for resale.
Who it's for
Railroad operators and trucking fleets that want to cut emissions and monetize captured CO2.
Founders
Paul Gross
Founder and CEO
Before Remora, I ran large-scale randomized experiments that uncovered new ways to increase political participation and bipartisanship. I first experienced the joys of carbon-neutral transportation during a solo bicycle trip across the US before college.
