True, many people don't realize this. But carbon capture solutions don't necessarily need to be efficient - we are not doing it to make more energy, we are doing it to clean up the many decades of mess we already made in the atmosphere. So yes, we will have to spend energy, to clean that up, naturally. The most important part is that none of these solutions is exclusive and shouldn't be pictured as exclusive. We need to offset fossil fuels, lower our energy use, and suck CO2 from the atmosphere. All three of them.
