I don't think any of the realistic models have DAC providing a significant percentage of the carbon reduction. For example, 99% of the reduction from green electrification, and 1% from DAC.

DAC is still in the research phase, and is probably a decade a way from widespread use.

Solar power, wind power and electric transportation are already well into the production phase and are happening today.
