Major offtake agreement secures up to 120,000 tonnes of high-permanence carbon removal credits.
Rail-based carbon logistics model offers scalable alternative to pipeline transport.
Partnership underscores BECCS as a core solution for durable, verifiable decarbonization.
Frontier Infrastructure Holdings has signed a landmark offtake agreement with Wild Assets to deliver up to 120,000 tonnes of carbon dioxide removal (CDR) credits from Bioenergy with Carbon Capture and Storage (BECCS) technology.
The agreement secures high-integrity, high-permanence credits generated by capturing biogenic CO₂ emissions from ethanol refineries. These emissions will be transported by rail—a strategic alternative to pipelines—to Frontier’s Sweetwater Carbon Storage Hub in Wyoming for permanent geologic sequestration.
“We are proud to partner with Wild Assets, an innovative organization that recognizes the critical need for scalable and permanent carbon removal,” said Steven Lowenthal, Co-CEO of Frontier. “This agreement validates our strategy to lead in CO₂-by-rail logistics and invest in the infrastructure required for durable carbon storage.”
Backed by private equity firm Tailwater Capital, Frontier’s approach addresses permitting and infrastructure challenges, enabling distributed emitters to access large-scale sequestration hubs. The deal strengthens the role of BECCS in the voluntary carbon market, where demand for verifiable and durable credits is rising sharply.

“Our confidence in Frontier’s CDR projects stems from their thoughtful engineering, elegant design, commitment to Puro’s stringent standards, and their strategic role in the energy value chain, where BECCS enables real decarbonization,” said Matan Rudis, Partner at Wild Assets. “This makes Frontier’s credits highly competitive, scalable, and dependable—an attractive proposition for climate-focused investors.”
The collaboration marks a significant step in the commercialization of durable carbon removals, reinforcing BECCS as a cornerstone solution in the transition to net-zero.
