Mantel has secured an $18 million strategic investment from Constellation Technology Ventures and Azimut Investments, bringing the company’s total funding to $50 million. This capital infusion is positioned by CEO Cameron Halliday as the catalyst needed to move past pilot programs and deploy large-scale carbon capture facilities globally.

The focus of this funding round underscores a specific operational strategy: adopting a modular, systems-engineering approach. Mantel argues that this method overcomes historical hurdles in the CCUS sector, where traditional projects have struggled with cost-effectiveness and complex integration into existing industrial infrastructure. The technology itself utilizes molten salt to capture CO2 at high temperatures common within heavy industrial heat and power equipment.

Operators should track if Mantel's modular systems can rapidly prove scalable integration across diverse global sectors, moving past the scope of initial pilot projects.

The company is immediately applying this capital across multiple geographies. In North America, Mantel is advancing two key front-end designs: a facility in western Canada with Wood aiming for 60,000 tons of annual CO2 capture, and a partnership in West Virginia with TerraSpark to support its proposed 1.6 GW energy campus.

Furthermore, the involvement of Azimut Investments specifically targets global expansion, providing project finance expertise and access to European capital markets. Constellation’s participation adds deep institutional backing, signaling confidence in Mantel's ability to integrate practical clean-energy solutions into existing industrial facilities while maintaining efficiency.
