billion by 2025.20 The customer base may expand to retail, turf, nursery, ornamental, and government. The environmental benefit of biocarbon is clear: Given that carbon is stored in the soil for hundreds of years, it does not circle back into the atmosphere. The combination of its environmental and economic value should allow biochar to grow in value and marketability over the longer term. Companies are taking advantage of this demand increase. One main example is Cool Planet, a Colorado- based company that produces a biochar-based soil amendment in California. The company’s product is sold commercially, and it has received funding from large donors and is seeking additional investment. In Cool Planet’s Series A funding last year, which totaled $20 million, North Bridge Ventures and Augustin Coppel in Mexico gave the largest injections, while others such as family offices and venture capitalists also provided funding. Founded in 2009, Cool Planet initially invested in fuels technology along with biocarbon research and testing. In 2014, when petroleum prices dropped sharply, management decided to abandon the project for a large-scale fuel plant and fully pivoted to agriculture and biocarbon. With industry seeking to reduce greenhouse gas emissions and bolster the health of soils, Cool Planet believes its technology intersects both of those goals. It is currently in talks with big agriculture companies to displace the use of peat, which is not environmentally friendly since it releases CO2 when it is burned. This year, Cool Planet plans to build a plant in Alexandria, Louisiana, to manufacture its biochar-based soil amendment. It wants to expand, too, by building facilities in Georgia, Wisconsin, Oregon and Colorado. These locations would allow the facilities to be close to both the biomass source to produce the biochar and close to customers. The facilities would allow Cool Planet to produce enhanced biochar on a large scale. By contrast, most biochar currently on the market is chunky and dusty, which is less productive for users. One recent policy development may help accelerate development for biocarbon products, underpinning demand. The Agriculture Improvement Act of 2018, the so-called Farm Bill, passed with overwhelming bipartisan support in the U.S. Congress and included provisions for pilot programs to help farmers increase carbon in their soil, the first time the government has ever supported sequestering carbon in soil.21 The law does not mention biochar specifically but creates an environment that should bolster its market longer term. Even so, there are numerous technological, feedstock, and logistical challenges surrounding creating a consistent and robust biochar market. 20 “Biochar Market Size Worth $3,146.1 Million by 2025”.
