Altitude Partners With Alcom For +360.000t Carbon Removals
Altitude, the world leading carbon dioxide removal (CDR) financier, has significantly expanded its purchases by partnering with Alcom for +360.000t of CDRs. Altitude has crossed more than 720,000 t CDRs in total procurement. In one of the largest individual off-take agreements to date, Altitude is procuring over 360,000 tonnes of CO₂ Removal Certificates (CORCs) from Alcom’s biochar-based carbon removal facilities in the Philippines and India. These credits will be issued through Puro.earth, ensuring independent verification, traceability, and long-term permanence.
Alcom Founder & CEO Prateek Tiwari and Director of Carbon Siddharth Kaul emphasized that this partnership accelerates the deployment of high-quality CDR capacity, bringing long-term climate benefits while creating local economic value. Through the shared projects, biochar carbon removal locks CO₂ into a solid form while positively treating waste biomass and creating economic benefits through its application.
Alcom is a pioneer and one of the world leading biochar project developers, and has a proven track record of building and delivering on their growth ambitions. Altitude has established itself as a top CDR buyer globally (*CDR.fyi purchaser leaderboard) and is thus significantly contributing to scaling up large-scale CDR.
