Biochar,
delivered right.

We deliver high impact decarbonisation solutions with our networks of farmers in the Global South.

We believe biochar is delivered right, when every tonne is traceable and every payment transparent.

 

We work alongside farmer communities in India and Ghana, and give our partners:

Real-time traceability
Through our in-house sensors and app
Transparent impact reporting
Tracked in the field, reported to your standard

FAQs

What makes Carboneers different?

We focus on upgrading how biochar is produced, measured and delivered; bringing industrial quality to distributed projects through proprietary technology, real-time digital MRV and transparent payments.

Why agricultural residues?

We use agricultural residues that would otherwise be openly burned or left to decompose. By putting this waste to better use, we avoid unnecessary emissions while permanently removing carbon through biochar.

Why do you focus on distributed biochar production?

Because that’s where the greatest opportunity exists. Thousands of smallholder farmers in hard-to-reach rural areas across the Global South produce agricultural residues that are often overlooked. By combining local partnerships with proprietary technology and real-time digital MRV, we bring industrial levels of transparency, traceability and quality to distributed biochar production.

How permanent is your biochar carbon removal?

Biochar stores carbon in a stable form for hundreds to thousands of years. We use recognised scientific models to assess permanence and apply an additional 2% safety buffer, giving buyers even greater confidence in every tonne delivered.

Can you deliver carbon credits in the near term?

Yes. We already aggregate thousands of smallholder producers across India and Ghana to deliver high-quality carbon removal at scale today, helping buyers meet near-term net zero targets.

How do farmers benefit?

Farmers receive the biochar produced for free to improve their soils and crop yields. People that produce the biochar are paid fairly for their work, and we commit to including at least 50% women in all projects.
