Altitude, a leading Carbon Removal Financier is pleased to announce that it has secured an additional 120,000t of CORCs  from biochar-based carbon dioxide removal (CDR) facilities in West Africa. This new commitment complements Altitude’s earlier financing of 25,000t of CORCs in West Africa. The biochar facilities, operating under strict sustainability and verification standards, utilize advanced pyrolysis technology to convert agricultural waste and forest residues into biochar CDR.

“This expanded financing marks another step in our ambition to accelerate durable carbon removal at scale,” said Daniel Benjamin Schulz, CEO of Altitude. “By financing additional 120,000t CORCs from high-quality biochar facilities in West Africa, we deepen our engagement in the region and strengthen the growth of CDR.”

The procurement aligns with Altitude’s long-term strategy of enabling multi-million t CDR. 

Julien Jacob, Head of Offtakes & Investment Solutions at Puro.earth, added:

“Altitude’s continued long-term offtake with Puro CORC projects is precisely the kind of commitment the carbon removal market needs to catalyze investment and scale. Their additional 120,000 t purchase sends a strong signal about confidence in Puro and high-integrity CDR solutions.”

This milestone further strengthens Altitude’s position as a leading CDR financier and contributes to accelerating the global deployment of high-quality CDR producing infrastructure.
