OUR MISSION
Kepler ReCapture’s mission is to revolutionize coastal water security by pioneering a carbon-negative desalination solution at an unprecedented scale.
- Addresses urgent need for freshwater and the growing threat of climate change.
- Energy demands of large-scale desalination into an opportunity for massive carbon dioxide removal.
- Transforming the energy demands of large-scale desalination.
- Creating an opportunity for massive carbon dioxide removal.
Aligns sustainable water production with global climate goals.
ENVIRONMENTAL
CHALLENGE
- Global water scarcity and climate change are interconnected crises affecting billions.
- Accumulating greenhouse gases cause ocean warming and acidification.
- This leads to extreme weather, collapsing food webs, and increased water stress.
- Population growth and rising living standards are intensifying pressure on limited freshwater resources.
The International Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) estimates that 10 gigatonnes of net CO₂ removal per year are needed by 2050 to limit global temperature rise to 1.5°C or 2°C.
Meanwhile, the UN projects that by 2025, two-thirds of the global population may face water shortages.
Kepler’s integrated solution directly addresses both of these challenges, offering a sustainable and scalable approach to environmental restoration and water security.
Kepler is at the forefront of a new paradigm in water security/ Our innovation is for a sustainable future:
- Delivering carbon-negative desalinated water and renewable energy to coastal regions.
- Harmonizing economic activity with Earth's natural processes.
- Creating a framework where sustainable water production converges with atmospheric-ocean carbon cycle management.
Our approach supplies the freshwater needs of small countries, large islands, and or major metropolitan regions while simultaneously removing vast quantities of CO₂ from the ocean-atmosphere system:
- Kepler creates multiple revenue streams through our technology stack.
- Addresses critical infrastructure needs and geopolitical challenges.
- Creates durable product steam benefits while sequestering Carbon.
- Our Energy source OTEC is entirely Renewable.
Water abundance for community prosperity. Revolutionary desalination technology that transforms coastal communities.
Joint Solution: Dasco Inc and Kepler ReCapture.
- Community consultation and site assessment.
- Funding guidance (public/private/hybrid).
- Turn-key build and commissioning.
- Long-term operations by Dasco under multi-year agreements.

KEPLER'S SOLUTION
Kepler is developing a fully autonomous network of geo-positioned deep-water spar platforms, each supporting 2.5 hectares of space for integrated desalination and carbon capture operations. Our multifaceted, state-of-the-art approach combines cutting-edge technologies for ocean thermal energy conversion with wave power to form a robust, renewable energy supply.
This energy powers a multi-stage desalination process, producing commercial quantities of fresh water, biologically-derived products, renewable energy, and valuable co-produced products such as carbonate minerals, salts, and marketable gases (CO₂, O₂, N₂). Our multifaceted, state-of-the-art approach also captures carbon from both the ocean and atmosphere while safeguarding marine ecosystems. Rigorous parallel monitoring protocols ensure that Kepler maintains or enhances the surrounding environment, fostering improved ecological systems and refugia near each platform.
By leveraging these innovative technologies, Kepler aims to sustainably meet the freshwater needs of coastal nations, large islands, and expansive urban regions. Our vision integrates environmental restoration with economic growth, contributing to a more resilient and equitable future for the planet
