(01) Mission

Climate action needs more than cutting emissions. It needs CO₂ taken out of the air and kept out , with proof that anyone can check.

The name

Measure first

Kepler takes its name from the astronomer who showed that planets move in ellipses. He did it by trusting careful observation over received ideas. That is the spirit we bring to carbon removal: measure first, then make the claim.

The mark

An orbit and a point

Our logo carries the same idea. An orbit runs through the name, and at its focus sits a single point, the carbon we return to the ground and hold there.

The role

Between supply and demand

Our partners in China produce the biochar. Our buyers in Europe and beyond bring the demand. Kepler sits between them, holding the contracts, the data and the responsibility for every tonne we sell. The aim: make Chinese carbon removal something a careful European buyer can purchase with confidence.

(02) How we work

Four principles. No exceptions.

I

Measure, then claim

A number goes on our website or into a contract only when we can show where it came from: a batch, a lab report or a registry entry.

II

Partners grow with us

Plant owners, farmers and fertilizer companies are paid fairly and on time, and are named in our records. Their success is our supply.

III

Independent checks

We develop and monitor projects; independent bodies verify them and registries issue the credits. We prefer being checked to being trusted.

IV

Long horizons

Carbon stored for centuries deserves contracts, data and relationships built to last. We plan in decades, not campaigns.

(03) Leadership

(04) Supervisory board

Sebastian Wolf

Role
Chairman of the Supervisory Board
Former
COO, PowerCo · Volkswagen Group
Focus
Industrial scale-up and international operations

“Industrial leadership supporting company development and oversight, with the discipline of building at scale.”

Sebastian Wolf brings experience from scaling battery cell manufacturing within the Volkswagen Group. As chairman, he oversees governance and helps Kepler build the operating discipline that a commodity business at scale requires.

The board meets with management on a fixed calendar, reviews every major supply and buyer contract, and holds the company to the same rule we apply to our credits: no claim without a record behind it.

(05) China–Europe bridge

China meets European resources.

The low-carbon transition is not one company's journey. We act as a hub where technology, capital and policy meet.
