The widespread adoption of CDR can lead to employment potential of up to 190,000 jobs in contributing sectors in Germany, surpassing current employment in wind energy.

Given the significant economic potential of Carbon Dioxide Removal (CDR), the question arises of how this potential might be distributed across regions and countries globally. Competitive advantage plays a crucial role here. The actual installations of CDR will occur in areas with suitable natural conditions (e.g., available land) and the lowest operations and maintenance costs (e.g., energy and labor). However, the technology supplied to these installations and the software developed to quantify their impact and market the resulting credits could come from anywhere in the world.
