Altitude, a prominent financier in the carbon removal sector, has significantly expanded its commitment to durable climate solutions by securing an additional 120,000 tonnes of Carbon Removal Certificates (CORCs). These certificates originate from high-quality biocharBiochar is a carbon-rich material created from biomass decomposition in low-oxygen conditions. It has important applications in environmental remediation, soil improvement, agriculture, carbon sequestration, energy storage, and sustainable materials, promoting efficiency and reducing waste in various contexts while addressing climate change challenges. More facilities located across West Africa. This latest transaction substantially increases the company’s regional engagement, building upon a previous financing commitment of 25,000 CORCs in the same area. The expanded portfolio underscores the company’s focus on supporting verified, scalable climate solutions on the African continent.
The facilities operate under strict sustainability protocols, and the resulting CORCs are issued through the Puro.earth registry, ensuring the environmental integrity and quality of the carbon removal achieved.
This major procurement aligns directly with Altitude’s long-term business strategy, which is centered on deploying smart capital to accelerate the growth of high-integrity, scalable Carbon Dioxide Removal (CDR) infrastructure worldwide. By providing necessary, large-scale financing for these projects, Altitude aims to enable the eventual development of multi-million tonne CDR capacity. This expanded, long-term commitment sends a clear and positive market signal, demonstrating strong confidence in both the Puro.earth standard and the vital scalability of biochar as a leading, permanent CDR solution. The financing is designed to catalyze further investment and accelerate the global deployment of infrastructure crucial for climate mitigation.
