From risk allocation and contract structures to quality standards and verification, the discussion will unpack what buyers, investors and developers each need to unlock larger, more predictable flows of capital into high-integrity biochar carbon removal.
What we’ll cover
- The investment case for biochar CDR: What “big and boring” means for institutional and corporate buyers, and how to move beyond pilots and one-off deals.
- Risk, quality and MRV: Aligning methodologies, durability assumptions and verification to give investors confidence in biochar-based carbon removals.
- Financing models at scale: From offtake agreements and project finance to blended capital – how to structure deals that work for both developers and investors.
- Global market access: Enabling participation from emerging and developing markets while maintaining high-integrity standards.
- From story to asset class: Positioning biochar within broader net-zero strategies, Scope 3 portfolios and long-term CDR procurement plans.
