Dr Eric Dahlgren, Co-founder, CEO, Chairman
Technology development and company strategy
2013 Columbia PhD thesis “Small Modular Infrastructure” under Klaus Lackner led to the idea of a miniaturized CO2-to-fuel system. Eric and Mia co-founded Aircela to make it happen. Eric grew up in Lund, Sweden, playing the grand piano of his great-grandfather Svante Arrhenius, a Nobel laureate who was the first to calculate the effect of CO2 on the temperature of the earth.

Our goal is to replace fossil fuels as quickly as possible — and achieving cost parity is key to making that happen.
We expect our first-generation consumer machines to land around $15,000–$20,000, with prices decreasing over time as we scale manufacturing. As production costs come down, so will the cost per gallon — allowing us to expand our impact and reach more cost-sensitive markets.
In the meantime, we welcome early adopters who are ready to pay a green premium to keep driving — carbon neutral.

The commercial opportunities are endless
Contracts, MOU’s and investments for Series A are in the making as demand is huge for our product.
With a choice of methanol or gasoline output, shipping giants, automakers, island communities, fabric makers, chainsaw producers and other interested parties are lining up to acquire our machines and secure their fossil free future.
Another benefit of the aircela is the small scale which allows for rapid deployment and continually expanding installations to customers’ evolving demand - keeping the relationship active.
Aircela is ready to go!
