Maximum impact with a quality portfolio at an affordable price.
Climeworks offers standardized Carbon Removal Portfolios based on scientific guidance
Portfolios consist of different carbon removal credits, representing the removal of a specified quantity of carbon dioxide from the air.
How the portfolios work
Credits are sourced from (i) Climeworks’ own direct air capture facilities and (ii) projects from third-party carbon removal suppliers utilizing various technology and nature-based carbon removal solutions, vetted for highest quality within their domain.
At the time of purchase, customers will receive an order confirmation and invoice and can track their orders from the Climeworks dashboard.
Deliveries take place within 7 years following the year of purchase.
Upon delivery, customers will receive a delivery note specifying the details, including supplier information.
Overview of the removal solutions within our portfolios
Nature-based solutions
Afforestation
Reforestation uses the natural ability of trees to absorb CO₂ through photosynthesis, storing carbon in their biomass and the surrounding soil.
Co-benefits
Supports biodiversity, stabilizes local climates, prevents soil erosion, and creates economic opportunities in forestry.
Durability
40+ years
Biochar
Biochar offers another versatile solution for carbon removal. Produced by thermally decomposing biomass under low-oxygen conditions, Biochar locks carbon into a stable form that can be integrated into soils.
Co-benefits
Enhances soil fertility, improves water retention, reduces emissions of methane and nitrous oxide from agricultural soils, and creates a circular economy for organic waste.
Durability
100+ years
Mangroves
Mangroves are salt-tolerant trees and shrubs forming coastal ecosystems. They capture and store "blue carbon" in their biomass and sediments, with dense root systems enabling long-term sequestration, coastline stabilization, and erosion reduction.
Co-benefits
Protects coastal communities from storm surges and flooding, enhances biodiversity by providing critical habitats for fish and wildlife, and supports livelihoods through fisheries and eco-tourism.
Durability
40+ years
Technology-based solutions
Enhanced Rock Weathering
Enhanced Rock Weathering accelerates natural chemical processes by spreading finely crushed silicate rocks over land. These rocks react with atmospheric CO₂ to form stable bicarbonates or carbonates that remain sequestered for thousands of years.
Co-benefits
Improves soil health (increasing crop yields for farmers), contributes to ocean alkalinity by mitigating acidification when dissolved minerals enter water bodies.
Durability
1,000+ years
BECCS
BECCS combines renewable energy generation with negative emissions by utilizing biomass to take up CO₂ during growth. This biomass is then processed for energy, and the resulting CO₂ emissions are captured and stored deep underground in geological formations.
Co-benefits
Provides a renewable energy source (using organic matter from plants to produce energy).
Durability
10,000+ years
Direct Air Capture & Storage
Our direct air capture (DAC) technology removes CO₂ from ambient air. Powered by low-carbon energy, air is drawn into collector containers, and CO₂ molecules are captured inside with the sorbent. Once saturated, the CO₂ is released with low heat and transferred for storage safely and permanently underground.
Co-benefits
Highly scalable, uses a small land footprint, and creates jobs in varied locations.
Durability
10,000+ years
The benefits
Reduced risk with sourcing and vetting managed by Climeworks.
Easy and convenient fully managed portfolio, supporting scale up of CDR industry.
