Frontier Infrastructure Holdings has signed an offtake agreement with Wild Assets, a global asset manager focused on carbon dioxide removal (CDR), for the purchase of up to 120,000 tonnes of high-permanence CDR credits. The credits will be generated through Bioenergy with Carbon Capture and Storage (BECCS), using emissions captured from ethanol refineries.
The carbon dioxide will be transported via rail—through a logistics partnership with a major railroad operator—to Frontier’s Sweetwater Carbon Storage Hub in southwestern Wyoming, where it will be permanently stored underground. This rail-based approach is designed to address regulatory and permitting challenges associated with pipeline transport.
“We are proud to partner with Wild Assets, an innovative organisation that recognises 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. By targeting emissions from key industries like ethanol production, we’re providing the market with reliable, high-integrity carbon credits.”
Matan Rudis, Partner at Wild Assets, said, “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 decarbonisation. This makes Frontier’s credits highly competitive, scalable, and dependable—an attractive proposition for climate-focused investors.”
The agreement comes as interest grows in verified, long-term carbon removal solutions to meet corporate and national climate targets.
