Graphyte
Combining photosynthesis with practical engineering, Graphyte’s Carbon Casting technology provides an immediate pathway for billions of tons of low-cost, durable carbon removal.
Why we invested
By 2030, the world needs to be on pace to remove several gigatons of CO2 per year to stave off the worst effects of climate change. Graphyte will be a key piece of the solution. Their system is durable, ready to scale now, and has realistic cost targets below $100/ton without consuming huge amounts of energy.
Why this work matters
Graphyte has created a carbon removal solution that accelerates progress in the race against climate change. Carbon Casting lets nature efficiently do the work of capturing CO2 from readily available biomass, then leverages engineering to store it for climate-relevant timescales. Graphyte recently opened its first carbon removal plant in Pine Bluff, Arkansas, and will open several additional projects in 2025.
