Climate Tech Founders Pivot from Space to Earth, Bringing Carbon-Neutral Fuel to Industry

A small group of climate tech founders, including Halen Mattison and Luke Neise, have shifted their focus from space to Earth, developing technology that can convert carbon dioxide into methane for use in industries such as chemical and plastic manufacturing. Their company, General Galactic, has built a pilot system that can produce 2,000 liters of methane per day and plans to deploy its first modules in 2025.

In the next 6 months, General Galactic is expected to continue refining its technology and securing additional funding to support its commercial-scale production plans.
By the end of 2025, General Galactic’s methane production capacity is expected to increase significantly, with the company aiming to supply its fuel to major industries such as aviation and maritime shipping.
In the next 5 years, General Galactic’s technology is expected to become a major player in the global energy market, with the company potentially displacing fossil fuels in certain sectors and contributing to a significant reduction in greenhouse gas emissions.
By 2034, General Galactic’s methane production is expected to have a major impact on the global energy landscape, with the company potentially becoming a leading supplier of carbon-neutral fuel to industries such as aviation, maritime shipping, and chemical manufacturing.
