Biochar
What is biochar? and why it matters?
Biochar is a stable, carbon-rich material produced by heating biomass in a low-oxygen environment (a controlled thermochemical process). When produced and applied responsibly, biochar can store carbon for long periods while supporting circular economy outcomes, by converting biomass residues into a higher-value product instead of leaving them to decay or burn.
Durable Carbon Storage
Biochar provides a highly durable carbon storage potential, keeping carbon sequestered for centuries when measured and documented correctly. This permanence makes it a valuable asset in the carbon markets.
Clear Measurement and Monitoring
Compared to many other project types, biochar offers a clear pathway for measurement and monitoring. This transparency is critical for building trust with buyers and ensuring project integrity.
Scalable and Co-beneficial
Biochar production is highly scalable through modular production expansion. Additionally, it offers significant co-benefits such as waste reduction and improved soil properties, contributing to a circular economy.
