Abstract

Biochar: Unlocking Carbon Market Potential

Caitlin Kelly from  South Pole

South Pole is a global leader in carbon asset development, helping companies certify their achieved carbon removal and efficiently access new revenue streams from the marketing and sale of carbon credits. Biochar opportunities have expanded exponentially over the last few years, but this wealth of opportunity has also resulted in an increasingly complex ecosystem. 

Join South Pole for a deep-dive session to explore the carbon market ecosystem and emerging opportunities for biochar. We will discuss available and upcoming biochar methodologies, including the costs and benefits of different approaches and key questions to consider for biochar producers. We will then provide an overview of general carbon market trends, explain some of the key factors that have limited recent carbon market growth, and how that may be expected to change in the long term. With our expertise in biochar project development, we hope to provide useful information for current and future biochar producers to help make informed decisions on developing a carbon offset project.

Join USBI for the 2025 North American Biochar Conference coming September 15-18, 2025, in Minneapolis, Minnesota! Watch biocharconference.com for updates and information.
