Sustainable, scalable and comes with plenty of co-benefits: biomass-based carbon removals are gaining traction for their ease of use and durability. However, there is still a long way to go before these technologies can play a tangible role in achieving global and national climate goals. In this analyst note, we comparatively present the mechanisms behind, and the state of, various biomass-based removals such as biochar, bio-oil, woody biomass burial and BECCS. What are the prospects, opportunities and challenges of these technologies? Will they impact the carbon credit landscape, and if so, how and when? Read about these questions and more in our note.
