MRV difference
Every hectare of land and every tonne of biochar is tracked via our proprietary Digital MRV system.
Data layer
Satellite heat maps, parcel boundaries, sensor logs, and verification-ready evidence.
Field layer
Local implementation teams, tablet-based ground truthing, and community stewardship.
Project detail example
A multi-site project utilizing waste biomass from community forests to produce biochar, providing a permanent carbon removal solution while restoring soil health for local farmers.
Carbon Potential
15,000 tCO2e / year
Longevity
100+ years
Co-benefits
30% yield lift
Aligning with Puro.earth or VCS (Verra) Biochar protocols for stringent quantification of net-removal, including residue sourcing, pyrolysis efficiency, permanence, soil application, and chain-of-custody controls.
Co-benefits include a 30% increase in crop yields and a 40% reduction in chemical fertilizer reliance across participating farmer plots.
