Arbor’s Post

Today marks the anniversary of one of our company's critical technical milestones. This time last year, Arbor's team achieved sustained supercritical oxy-combustion of syngas. This is an extremely challenging feat - and core to unlocking carbon-negative power at GW and GT scale. The reaction is so clean and complete that it cannot be seen in the visible spectrum. The future can be bright: zero-waste, carbon-negative, water-positive, and our natural world protected... all while promoting an improved quality of life for a global population.

For critical climate solutions to meaningfully scale, trust is a top priority. We're so excited to work with Isometric to pioneer this comprehensive measurement framework that builds confidence with carbon buyers in BCCS (Biogenic Carbon Capture and Storage)!

David Yeh perfectly articulating the "why" we are all here solving the hardest of problems. And knowing so many incredible companies are not just trying, but succeeding, gives us the motivation to wake up everyday and keep innovating. Arbor is lucky to count David as an Advisor--his thought leadership is second to none! #FOAK #climatetech

⭐ Exciting News from Arbor! ⭐ We’re thrilled to share that Arbor Energy has been chosen as a semifinalist in the U.S. Department of Energy’s Carbon Dioxide Removal (CDR) Purchase Pilot Prize! 🎉 This marks the first carbon purchase on behalf of the federal government ever, making it an even more significant milestone. We are truly honored to be recognized as a model of the durable carbon removal solutions that are essential for our planet’s future. And what an esteemed group to be a part of! Huge congratulations to all of the companies advancing to the next phase. We are excited to work alongside such amazing innovators and the Department of Energy to raise the bar for excellence in carbon removal. #ClimateTech #CarbonRemoval #CleanEnergy #Sustainability #Innovation #ArborEnergy

There was so much energy at Climate Week NYC, bringing together some of the most brilliant changemakers to continue the forward momentum needed to drive serious climate action. Brad Hartwig and Sarah Kjellberg had the opportunity to attend many fantastic events throughout the week. Thank you to the incredible hosts! They met with members of government, community leaders, NGOs, suppliers and buyers of carbon removal, partners, and investors, as well as moderate a panel on Aligned Action for Energy Solutions at the Leaders on Purpose event. Some takeaways from the week: 🔍 Standards and frameworks – the work led by ICVCM and VCMI are critical in creating transparency and quality frameworks to unlock scale. MRV (measurement, reporting, and verification) will continue to play an important role in providing integrity and credibility on CDR methodologies. 🌐 Ecosystem – the ecosystem to support the voluntary carbon markets continues to grow with insurance companies developing products to insure non-delivery risk and efforts to develop carbon credit futures markets to develop price signals and provide a hedging instrument. 💵 Financing – financing for projects continues to be a challenge. Startups are in R&D phase and need to move to demonstration projects, however this requires a lot of capital that’s hard to come by in a high-interest rate environment. If we are to deploy CDR at the scale that’s needed, these projects need to get funded now. 🤝 Environmental justice - the most vulnerable countries and communities that have contributed the least to climate change are the most impacted. Actively engaging with these communities to listen, learn, support, and act are critical in ensuring the transition is just and equitable. 🌠 Future leaders – while things can feel dire, the future leaders provide us with hope and optimism that we can do this. There were so many examples of young leaders who are finding their purpose in climate action. We need more education, training, reskilling and upskilling. Young leaders are no longer hearing that they will change the world, rather, they are going to save the world! 👩🚀 UN SDG 6 - this was also a week to continue to march towards meeting the UN SDGs by 2030. Being part of the UN Foundation and Estee Lauder event reminds us that much more work needs to be done to get to SDG 6 - Gender Equality & Women's Empowerment. Mentorship and supporting STEM education are just a few ways to transform the lives of girls. #climateweeknyc #carbonremoval #climateaction #unsdg13 #unsdg6
