Aperam BioEnergia is a brazilian player of the forest and renewable energy sector, that runs a ~420.000 kton/year charcoal operation with emissions control in the northeast region of Minas Gerais - Brazil, and holds ~126.000 ha of planted (FSC Certified) and native forest with important biodiversity and economical impact on local communities. The Biochar project allows the charcoal to be brought back to Aperam BioEnergia forests and applied to the soil, where it not only serves as a durable carbon removal from the atmosphere but also acts as an important natural component for soil characteristics reconditioning and improvement. This change of baseline is only possible due to the carbon removal revenue.
