CARBON PROJECTS
AT SCALE

line-icon
We are the industrial-scale carbon project developer.

Our mission is to deliver 5 million tonnes of investment-grade carbon credits per year by 2030.

Who We Are

Residual is the industrial-scale carbon project developer. We partner with industrials to design carbon projects that meet the bar for financiers, ratings, insurance, and offtake. We work at the design stage to turn potential projects into profitable and high-quality carbon assets.

The Challenge

Today’s buyers are selective, but many carbon projects are not designed to meet market standards. Investment-grade projects are needed at scale, yet those that clear scientific and commercial requirements remain scarce. Meanwhile, industrial assets with potential go unused.

The Solution

We work with these industrials to develop carbon projects that attract long-term buyers. By focusing on project design and commercial readiness from the start, we help turn viable sites into carbon credits that can achieve a price premium in today’s market.

Carbon projects Residual works with

Biochar
Biomass conversion to stable carbon
BECCS
Bioenergy with Carbon Capture and Storage
ARR
Afforestation, Reforestation, and Revegetation
Superpollutants
Methane and high-impact emissions

Here’s an example of how Residual can help you develop a successful biochar project.

Each year, farms and mills across the world produce crop residues and waste products.
Much of this material is left to decay or is burned, releasing carbon back into the atmosphere.
That same biomass can be used for carbon removal: an estimated 3 billion tonnes could be converted into biochar and other durable forms of stored carbon.
When applied to soils, biochar improves water retention and nutrient efficiency, boosting yields and strengthening resilience.

Residual helps businesses identify and unlock the potential of their carbon assets.

Design

We design carbon projects around buyer, investor, and diligence requirements, not just registry rules. That means credible baselines, strong economics, proven technology, and documentation that stands up to scrutiny. The result: projects built to issue, scale, and sell.

Derisk

Quality is set early. We build carbon, financial, and operational integrity into the project from day one, from feedstock and technology choices to MRV, safeguards, and governance. Our risk expertise ensures your project meets the bar for certification, ratings, insurability, and long-term integrity.

Deliver

We take projects end-to-end: registry, MRV, ratings, verification, and commercialization. Through our buyer network, including major corporates, hyperscalers and financial institutions, we help ensure credits are sold at a premium and under long-term agreements. Our incentives are aligned: we succeed when your project succeeds.

Platform

Through the Residual platform, you can present your data and documents to buyers and investors, track progress, structure financial models, and monitor every phase of your project.

Impact

Together, we turn underused assets into long-term climate impact: reducing emissions, supporting land productivity, and strengthening local economies.

Start your project with Residual and make your assets part of the climate solution.

What are biomass-based carbon removal technologies?

Biomass-based carbon removal technologies include biochar production, biomass gasification with carbon capture, and BECCS (Bioenergy with Carbon Capture and Storage). These technologies convert organic materials like agricultural residues, woody biomass, and industrial byproducts into stable carbon forms or utilize them for energy while capturing and storing CO₂.

What is biochar?

Biochar uses biological carbon removal. When biomass and other organic materials are burned in a low oxygen environment, a process called pyrolysis, the carbon inside the biomass transforms to a state where it cannot decay - known as biochar. It is then spread over soil or buried to store carbon in the land.

What is bioenergy with carbon capture and storage (BECCS)?

Bioenergy with carbon capture and storage (BECCS) integrates energy production, natural carbon removal, and geological storage. This process involves using biomass as fuel to produce energy while capturing the resulting CO2 emissions for storage underground. By doing so, BECCS not only generates energy but also achieves negative emissions.
