Permanent BioCCS Carbon Removals from Central Europe.

Corporate net-zero frameworks now require permanent carbon dioxide removal alongside steep, rapid emissions reductions. We arrange verified BioCCS projects in Austria, offer forward contracts so your company can secure capacity before the market tightens, and issue EU-CRCF certified Carbon Removal Units.

Compliant with EU-CRCF 2024/3012 CSRD Compliance Independent Verification SBTi Net Zero Standards
The Challenge

Quality supply is
scarce and technical.

Corporate net-zero strategies under SBTi and CSRD increasingly require permanent carbon dioxide removal for residual emissions — a category where credible, verifiable supply is genuinely scarce.

blaukos bridges that gap: we arrange BioCCS projects, manage the full MRV process, and issue EU-CRCF certified Carbon Removal Units under forward contracts.

Regulatory scrutiny is increasing

CSRD and SBTi rules demand verifiable, permanent removals. Unverified credits no longer satisfy the standard — and regulators are moving quickly.

Quality supply is limited

Verified BioCCS capacity is at an early stage. Companies that establish positions now gain both price and supply certainty.

The CRCF is technical and new

EU Regulation 2024/3012 introduces precise methodological requirements. Evaluating whether a credit genuinely qualifies requires specialist knowledge most teams do not yet have in-house.

Our Solution

Certified removals that
hold up to scrutiny.

We arrange BioCCS projects across Austria and Central Europe, manage the full MRV process, and issue Carbon Removal Units that qualify for the most demanding ESG frameworks.

01

EU-CRCF Compliant Removal

Credits issued under Regulation 2024/3012 using the official delegated act methodology — the reference standard for EU corporate climate claims.

02

Rigorous MRV Process

Full measurement, reporting and verification covering capture, transport and geological storage — independently audited by accredited third-party verifiers.

03

Central European Origin

Austrian and Central European biogenic point sources, minimising transport emissions and ensuring strong alignment with EU regulatory requirements.

The Science

How BioCCS removes CO₂
from the atmosphere.

1

Biogenic carbon uptake

Biomass absorbs atmospheric CO₂ during growth. This carbon is temporarily stored in the organic material.

2

Industrial process release

At biomethane plants, biogas upgrading, and pulp and paper plants, concentrated biogenic CO₂ is released as a process stream — normally vented to atmosphere.

3

Capture & permanent storage

We capture this CO₂ before it escapes, liquefy it, transport it, and inject it into deep geological formations — permanently removing it from the atmosphere.

4

Carbon Removal Unit issued

After independent verification, a CRU representing one tonne of net removal is issued and registered. Buyers retire it to substantiate their climate claims.

A Proven Model

A comparison: From green power certificates
to carbon removal units.

Anyone who receives a power bill marked "100% renewable" already knows the principle. Behind that claim sits a Guarantee of Origin (GoO): an electronic certificate confirming that one megawatt-hour was generated from renewable sources and fed into the grid.

The BioCCS certificate follows exactly the same logic — applied to carbon removal rather than electricity. The regulatory frameworks are closely related, and the market precedent is clear.

"In 2024, over 1,480 TWh of Guarantees of Origin were issued across Europe — up 9% from 2023. From a niche instrument established in 2001, GoOs have become a standard element of corporate sustainability reporting across the continent."

The BioCCS market is today where the GoO market was 20 years ago. EU regulation is in place, initial methodologies are active, and the first buyers have signed contracts. What is missing is the market infrastructure for scaling — and that is exactly what blaukos is building.
