P a g e | 125 UK firm Emission Analytics (EA) pegs MPPs at 1,000x carbon in terms of environmental reduction importance. We will have to wait on the UN, but using EA’s broad assessment, a photocatalytic pavement would remove an additional 2,750 tons of carbon equivalents per CLM per year related to NEEs. Excluding MPPs, the direct financial cost of a unit of carbon removed via a photocatalytic pavement cost about $1 (Table 21) at scale in comparison to other carbon dioxide removal (CDR) technologies estimated to cost as much as $500 or more 264 265 266 per unit of carbon removed.
