Reverion secures major carbon removal deals to scale biogas-based climate solutions

Reverion secures major carbon removal deals to scale biogas-based climate solutions

Reverion has signed $41 million in carbon removal agreements backed by Frontier buyers including Google, McKinsey, and H&M. The deals support the company’s high-efficiency fuel cell system, which converts biogas into clean electricity while capturing and permanently storing CO2. The funding will enable Reverion to scale its innovative carbon removal approach between 2027 and 2030.

Reverion has signed a landmark set of carbon removal agreements worth $41 million, secured through Frontier buyers such as Google, McKinsey, H&M, and others, to remove 96,000 tons of CO2 between 2027 and 2030. The deals support the company’s technology, which converts biogas into clean electricity while capturing emissions from both methane and CO2. This dual-capture design enables more efficient carbon removal from biogas waste streams such as manure, crop residue, and food scraps, positioning Reverion’s system as a significant advancement in biogas carbon removal technology.

Founded in 2022 as a spin-off from the Technical University of Munich, Reverion uses a solid oxide fuel cell system that receives methane and CO2 from anaerobic digesters at farm sites. The system generates electricity at 74% efficiency while producing a pure CO2 byproduct stream that can be liquefied and permanently stored in geological formations. Farmers also benefit from reduced fuel use and new revenue opportunities, as the system can switch to electrolysis mode during low-price renewable energy peaks to produce green hydrogen. Frontier emphasized the global potential of this approach given the more than 120,000 biogas sites worldwide.

The new offtake agreements include participation from Stripe, Shopify, Autodesk, Workday, and several companies purchasing removals through Frontier’s partnership with Watershed. Reverion said the support validates the economic viability of pairing high-efficiency clean power generation with permanent carbon removal at decentralized farm-based biogas facilities. As the company scales internationally, it expects its model to unlock hundreds of millions of tons of potential carbon removal while modernizing energy and waste operations across agricultural supply chains, further proving the long-term role of biogas carbon removal technology.
