Pacific Harbor Line Partners With Carbon Capture Start-Up
Published by Todd Bush on November 6, 2025
USA: Ports of Long Beach and Los Angeles rail operator Pacific Harbor Line has entered into a development agreement with Remora, which is developing mobile carbon capture technology for lorries and locomotives.
Michigan-based start-up Remora was founded in 2020. Its technology captures CO₂, converts it to liquid, and stores it onboard for sale to industries such as farming, food production, and manufacturing, sharing the revenue with the operator.
Its early road-based pilots led to a redesigned system that captures up to 900 kg of CO₂ per hour at a locomotive scale.

Remora has raised $117m in venture capital and has also worked with Union Pacific, Norfolk Southern, and Genesee & Wyoming. PHL is an investor, and Peter A. Gilbertson, President & CEO of Anacostia Rail Holdings, serves as an adviser.
Peter A. Gilbertson said on October 14: “Carbon capture adds yet another option in our efforts to slash emissions. In addition to reducing CO₂ emissions, Remora’s technology elevates connected locomotives to EPA Tier 4 standards and also enables the reuse of carbon in other commercial applications.”
Paul Gross, Co-Founder & CEO of Remora, said: “We are building this technology not only to meet environmental goals, but to make it financially compelling for railroads. Pacific Harbor Line’s support and Anacostia’s leadership will be instrumental as we bring carbon capture to freight rail.”
