Truecoco Biochar, Ghana
Truecoco scales durable carbon removal in West Africa by turning coconut husk waste into high-quality biochar. The process locks CO₂ away for over 100 years and supports local farmers with new income and healthier soils. Truecoco carbon removal is certified by Puro.earth and traceable in the public registry.

About the Project
Truecoco partners with local farmers to use their agricultural waste - coconut husks - and convert it into biochar. The biochar will then be sold back to the farmers at low rate for soil amendment. This improves the crop yields, provides additional revenue and increases the well-being of the farmers and their families. The circular model prevents emissions from decomposition, stores carbon durably, and returns enriched soil inputs to farmers.
By 2030, Truecoco targets removing more than 250,000 tCO₂ while improving the livelihoods of over 30,000 smallholder farmers.
