Cleantech. Carbon. Verified.

About us

350Solutions is a consulting group that provides independent evaluation of new environmental and cleantech innovations and independent verification of carbon removal and utilization projects and credits. Why 350? It’s widely accepted as the level of CO2 in ppm in the atmosphere that we need to get back to in order to limit the impacts of climate change. It’s going to take a myriad of actions to reduce CO2 levels, and we believe new innovations and technologies can play a significant role. At 350Solutions, we provide better data about how these technologies perform, and what their environmental impacts are. This data can reduce uncertainty and risk and encourage wider, more rapid implementation. We hope this is part of the solution to get back to 350 ppm.

    As a small business owner, I totally understand the issue of cash flow management. It's... painful. That said, it also allows 350Solutions to understand the importance of this. We are happy to be one of a handful of verifiers that can knock out high quality CDR verifications in a couple of weeks, making this approach possible.

    The Isometric Revenue Calculator shows suppliers what monthly verification can do for their cashflow. Rigorous and fast monitoring, reporting and verification (MRV) is critical to scaling carbon dioxide removal (CDR). Today, verifying removals with traditional registries is manual and slow. That’s why Isometric has introduced a digital MRV (dMRV) platform which drastically reduces the time to crediting from years to weeks. Issuing credits this fast means suppliers can recognize revenue monthly, not once a year. This frees up critical cashflow to scale CDR operations, rather than forcing suppliers to have huge amounts of potential revenue locked away for up to a year. The Isometric Revenue Calculator can help suppliers understand what fast and rigorous verification through the dMRV platform could do for their cashflow. The calculator (and the detailed model that powers it) can help suppliers understand how much they can save in financing costs with monthly credit issuance.

    Happy Anniversary to 350Solutions and our awesome team! 5 YEARS?!? How did that happen?

    5 years. On this day, five years ago, I filed the paperwork for what I thought might be...well, scratch that...we had no idea what this might be. A real opportunity? A transition strategy? TBD. We had some good potential clients, some pretty solid and relevant experience, and a 'why not? what else are we going to do?' attitude. All of which created an opportunity to take a leap of faith and start a company. And, here we are. Five years later. Still going. And, it looks like Year 5 is going to be the best we've ever had. Lots of accomplishments to be proud of for 350Solutions and our crew: - We've now verified 208,919 tonnes of registered carbon removals (and that's just the registered CDR ones - not the various pilots, carbon utilization, or other techs) - We've become a leading carbon removal (#CDR) expert, providing technical diligence and independent assessment in CDR across almost all CDR pathways for some of the best clients in the business - We're having our best financial year ever this year - I think we are still having fun, learning, and enjoying the work - Most importantly, I think we are doing this while working normal schedules (usually!), not getting too stressed, and enjoying time with our families and friends. So, thank you to the supporters of 350Solutions from the early days to now! Y'all have been critical to our success and we can't thank you enough - with a special shoutout to XPRIZE who provided our first major contract back in 2019. Thanks to the 350 Team, current and past, for making this work, having some faith, and being an outstanding crew to work with: Bill Chatterton, Kevin McCabe, Lily Schacht, Kyann Hadife, Patrick Woolcock, Ian Forrer. Here's to five more years!

    Happy to announce that 350Solutions is one of the Verification leads for the XPRIZE #CarbonRemoval competition! We'll be responsible for evaluating and independently verifying the technical performance of several of the 20 finalist teams, with approaches ranging from direct air capture to waste mineralization to ocean capture. 350 will utilize our engineering skillset and CDR experience to ensure high quality data is provided to XPRIZE and competition judges. The first site visit is complete - more visits and a LOT more data to come over the next 8 months. Let the CO2 flow!

    Great stuff from XPRIZE! A deep dive into their Top 100 and the path forward to #GettingtoGigatonne. LOTS of great insight for those in #carbonremoval.

    This is a fantastic report from XPRIZE regarding 100 of the top #carbonremoval suppliers, a full breakdown of who/what/where they are, and some great business and technical progress details. It also presents some amazing insight regarding the path forward for CDR and #GettingtoGigatonne. It's on one hand amazing seeing the amount of work going on in CDR, but on the other hand it is eye-opening to see the amount of work that still needs to be done (the numbers regarding credit sales vs. deliveries and prices highlight this). Anyway, a great document for anyone interested in CDR! Nice work #XPRIZECarbonRemoval Team! Michael Leitch Nikki Batchelor How will the leading CDR companies scale from kilotonne in 2024 to gigatonne in 2050?

    Happy to note that 350Solutions served as the independent verifier for Isometric's first registered carbon removal credits! It was a pleasure to work with the Isometric team and the first supplier on their registry - Vaulted Deep to provide our third-party verification of their removals. Great to see CDR activity ramping up (deliveries!) and an increased focus on high-quality credits and scientifically rigorous protocols. Looking forward to continuing to notch more 'firsts' in carbon removal at 350Solutions in 2024!

    The Isometric Registry officially launches today. The first credits on the Registry are the most scientifically rigorous, highest quality carbon removal credits to ever exist, marking a new era for carbon dioxide removal (CDR). Today’s credits were delivered to key members of Frontier. This follows Isometric's recent approval as a qualified organization for verifying and issuing credits to Frontier buyers. The carbon removal for these credits was conducted by Vaulted Deep, a biomass carbon removal and storage (BiCRS) company. Vaulted secures end-of-life organic wastes through sustainable sourcing practices. They take this waste and deploy slurry injection technology to geologically sequester it for storage, resulting in durable carbon removal. Stripe and Shopify’s credits are visible on the Isometric Registry, which sets a new standard for transparency in CDR, providing a permanent audit trail for all carbon removal credits issued by Isometric. There are three things that make Isometric carbon removal credits the highest quality to ever exist. First, they are grounded in scientific rigor, having been verified against the Isometric Standard. This ensures that one credit equals one tonne of carbon dioxide removed from the atmosphere and safely stored. Second, they are transparent with a publicly available life cycle assessment that accounts for every step of the carbon removal process. Finally, they reflect a model that aligns incentives. The verification and issuance of all Isometric credits is paid for by the buyer of those credits on a flat-fee basis, minimizing any conflict of interest. Carbon markets require trust to operate effectively and that’s exactly what Isometric’s new carbon removal credits deliver. This marks a new era for this industry, where buyers can purchase with confidence. This is a critical step towards creating quality in carbon markets, helping carbon removal reach the gigatonne scale that the planet needs. This is what Isometric was founded to do. https://lnkd.in/eWCf_Zvh

    We are REALLY excited to have two new team members starting this week! As the demand for carbon removal grows, so does the need for increased diligence, fact checking, and verification of new CDR technologies, MRV approaches, and carbon removal credits. Our two new Carbon Removal Verification Engineers will be focusing on just that. Please join us in welcoming Lily Schacht and Kyann Hadife to the 350 Team! Lily is a Chemical Engineer who previously worked on enhanced weathering MRV approaches, including significant field measurement and analytical experience, as well as prior process development experience for cleantech startups. Kyann recently completed his Masters from the Carbon Management program at Columbia, after serving as one of our summer interns last year. Kyann has recently supported CDR startups in developing and optimizing TEA and LCA for their novel technologies. So glad to have Lily and Kyann on board! And, ready to get them to work on so many new projects at 350. Let's go!
