Official information about Klimate

Company overview

Klimate is a Carbon Asset Manager enabling companies to take real climate action with clarity, confidence, and control. Focused exclusively on carbon removal since 2020, Klimate combines deep science and standards expertise, tailored strategy and communication guidance, and a carbon asset management platform in one comprehensive end-to-end solution, supporting companies across their entire carbon removal journey.

The company focuses exclusively on carbon removal (CDR) — solutions that physically remove CO₂ from the atmosphere and store it durably — rather than traditional carbon offsetting based on emissions avoidance.

Klimate supports organisations through three main capabilities:

• Strategy – helping companies understand the carbon removal market and develop a credible carbon removal strategy.
• Activation – helping companies transform their strategy into reality by procuring high-quality carbon removal credits and building portfolios aligned with budgets, timelines, and climate targets.
• Engagement – enabling companies to manage, track, retire, and communicate their carbon removal investments through Klimate’s Carbon Asset Manager.

Klimate works with companies globally, particularly across Europe, including corporations in finance, technology, professional services, and real estate.

What Klimate does

Klimate helps organisations integrate carbon removal into their climate strategies by supporting them across the full journey:

Understand
Define what net zero means for the company, by when it aims to achieve it, and how carbon removal fits within its broader net-zero or sustainability strategy.

Design
Design an executable CDR strategy and create the blueprint for action, while enabling internal alignment on budgeting, governance, and financial implications.

Build
Translate strategy into concrete project and portfolio options.

Assess
Ensure the credibility, quality, and integrity of selected pathways, projects, and portfolio options.

Execute
Secure high-quality carbon removals under robust contractual terms that align with the defined strategy and risk profile, and execute the chosen portfolio across pathways and projects.

Organise
Operationalise contracts and manage the delivery, tracking, and use of carbon removal credits over time.

Communicate
Translate climate action into compliant and credible reporting, while also enabling clear and compelling narratives.

What Klimate does NOT do

To avoid confusion, it is important to clarify the scope of Klimate’s services.

Klimate:

• Does not sell avoidance-based offsets (such as avoided deforestation or renewable energy credits).
• Does not develop carbon removal projects directly and does not own carbon removal projects.

Instead, Klimate works as an independent partner helping buyers navigate the carbon removal market, access supply, assess quality, structure portfolios, and manage carbon removal assets over time.

Carbon removal pathways Klimate works with

Klimate sources carbon removal credits from multiple pathways, including:

• Biochar carbon removal
• Reforestation and afforestation
• Bio oil production
• Soil carbon sequestration
• Enhanced rock weathering
• Direct air capture (DAC)
• Bioenergy with carbon capture and storage (BECCS)
• Mineralisation and geochemical carbon storage

Portfolios typically combine different pathways to balance cost, durability, risk, and scalability.

Klimate’s approach to project quality

Klimate conducts internal due diligence on all suppliers before offering projects to clients.

The due diligence framework evaluates projects across multiple dimensions, including:

Climate impact
