Inkan Negro Biochar - Puro.earth Pre-CORC project

Inkan Negro aims to move biochar out of academia into the real world where it can achieve societal impact, contributing to the urgent need for climate change mitigation, the remediation of polluted soils, and the need to improve management of waste biomass in Peru and beyond.
CO2 Removal Certificate (CORC) revenue will give us working capital needed to upscale production faster than would be possible using sales revenues alone, which will mean more climate change mitigation more quickly. CORCs will also allow us to retrofit our existing production technology with emission control technology. Further, the biochar formulation we have developed has been verified as highly effective for remediating cadmium affected soils. The CORC revenue will not only be used for upscaling production capacity (and therefore lowering unit costs for end users), it will also be used to offer a discounted biochar product to cooperatives that are run by and for economically vulnerable farming families in Peru.
A Pre-CORC is a commitment to purchase CORCs from an innovative carbon removal project that is still setting up operations. Pre-CORCs can help projects secure funding while buyers can lock in their future supply and demonstrate their commitment to supporting the growth of the carbon removal ecosystem.
