We are thrilled to introduce the seven startups joining our second CEEZER Carbon Coalition cohort!
The following seven innovators are driving change in the voluntary carbon market and have been selected for 2024 Carbon Coalition program:
– AirSmat Inc is an AI-driven Agtech democratizing the production of high-quality biochar to sequester carbon and improve the farmers' livelihood across Africa.
– Heimdal is building novel limestone-based direct air capture units aiming to scale operations to 1,000,000 metric tons by 2027-2029.
– PRONOE develops water treatment systems that integrate downstream of coastal industry, using the ocean's natural ability to capture and remove CO2.
– RECOAL AG converts waste biomass into hydrochar, also known as Negative Emission Coal (NEC). A patented process ensures that the NEC permanently remains in underground vaults.
– SeaO2 deploys direct ocean capture technology to sequester CO2 through a scalable and cost-effective electrochemical reaction.
– Silica permanently sequesters CO2 and improves crop yields for smallholder farmers through enhanced rock weathering.
– ZeroEx develops high-quality, regionally focused enhanced rock weathering projects to sequester CO2 and improve smallholder farmer livelihood.
Through the Carbon Coalition, CEEZER provides early-stage project developers the resources and guidance needed to commercialize and create widespread impact. This de-risks early removal offtake, helping promising startups gain tangible commercial traction from large international buyers.
