Kepler Carbon develops, certifies and delivers measurable CO₂ removal made from Chinese crop residues, so businesses can move beyond net zero.

Carbon,removed.

(02) About

We take carbon out of the air and lock it into the ground, with proof that anyone can check. Climate action means more than cutting emissions.

Science

Rebalancing the atmosphere

Kepler Carbon brings together biochar, mineralization and ecological restoration pathways. We deliver end-to-end services, from project development and digital monitoring to international certification and the delivery of credits to buyers.

Material

Why biochar

When crop straw, stalks and husks are heated without oxygen, the carbon they captured from the air while growing is turned into a stable, porous solid. Spread on farmland, that carbon stays in the soil instead of returning to the atmosphere as the residue decays.

Trust

Europe and China

With roots in Europe and operations in China, we work alongside governments, industrial parks, corporate buyers and international registries, so that every tonne removed is real, verifiable and worthy of trust.

(03) From straw to credit

Step 01 · Feedstock

Straw, not smoke

Every year, Chinese farms leave behind vast amounts of rice and wheat straw. Burned or left to rot, its carbon returns to the air. We collect it from partner farms in Anhui instead.

Step 02 · Pyrolysis

Heat without oxygen

At a partner plant the straw is heated in the absence of oxygen. Instead of burning, it becomes biochar, a stable carbon skeleton that keeps much of the carbon the plant absorbed.

Step 03 · Placement

Locked into the field

Each batch is tested in an accredited lab, then spread into farmland with GPS-logged placement. It holds water and nutrients for the farmer, while its carbon stays out of the air for centuries.

Step 04 · Issuance

Verified, then sold

An independent verifier reviews the full record before the registry issues serialized credits. Buyers retire them with a certificate that names the project and the batch.

(04) The market

Buyers now pay for delivered removal.

Biochar is the carbon removal method that buyers are actually receiving today. Corporate demand keeps rising, and supply that can be traced batch by batch is still scarce.

(05) What we do

One material. Six values.

Built around biochar, Kepler connects carbon credits, green agriculture, soil restoration and industry support into one value chain.

(06) A tonne you can see

Dig 20 cm. The black line is the product.

Most carbon credits are a number on a screen. Ours is a layer in a field you can photograph, sample and measure again in ten years.

0 cm

Crops and roots

Water and nutrients stay where roots can reach them, so yields hold steadier through difficult seasons.

0–10 cm

Topsoil moisture

Biochar pores store water and release it slowly, helping crops ride out dry spells.

10–20 cm

The biochar layer

The carbon store itself. Dense carbon that microbes struggle to break down, measured batch by batch and verified independently.

20–30 cm

Nutrients and microbes

A vast charged surface holds nutrients and gives useful bacteria and fungi a home.

(07) China–Europe

The first bridge for Chinese removal to the world.

We bring European markets, standards and experience to China, and help China's best low-carbon enterprises reach the global stage.

A · 14 tonnes

First international buyer

Kepler Carbon became the first international buyer of the Zhejiang Baguatian carbon removal project, purchasing its inaugural 14 tonnes of credits on the Below2 platform.

B · Commitment

A long-term commitment

A vote of confidence in the Chinese market, backed by European resources and government relationships, standing alongside China's environmental enterprises.

C · Both ways

Support in both directions

European standards and buyers flow into China. Chinese removal capacity and know-how reach Europe and the rest of the world.

(08) Why Kepler

Three reasons to trust us.

Buyers ask us the same three questions before they sign. Open each one for our answer.

We only develop verifiable, clearly additional, permanent removal. Every credit is backed by a documented chain of evidence that buyers and auditors can follow from field to registry.

Biochar sample in a lab

From site to retirement, our teams cover project development, digital MRV and trading, and work with independent verification bodies at every issuance. Fewer hand-offs, less lost information.

Pyrolysis line in Anhui

Our teams and projects span multiple countries. We are fluent in international registry rules and in the ESG procurement standards of multinational buyers, and at home in Chinese agriculture.
