What the current evidence supports

Human editorial judgment · 2026-06-28

Track; not yet

Why
Construction is nearly complete and core tech reportedly performs as expected, but a component failure of unknown severity, repeated slips, and a cost overrun mean it is not yet a demonstrated operating asset.
Next
Confirm actual commissioning and first verified injected/sequestered tonnes (not nameplate) before citing STRATOS as a proof point; watch the promised quarterly delay update.
