Pi Green And EcoGuard Partner To Digitise Carbon Capture
India's carbon market is gaining policy momentum following a Rs 200 billion (Rs 200 bn) budget allocation for carbon capture and storage and the establishment of a domestic compliance framework. This policy push creates compliance pressure and market opportunity for Indian and international firms, and it reinforces India's role as a scalable base for carbon abatement, digital Measurement, Reporting and Verification, credit origination and cross border carbon trading under Article six pathways. The partnership is positioned to respond to both regulatory and market demands.
Pi Green's patented carbon capture, utilisation and storage solution captures emissions from industrial sources and converts them into carbon negative construction bricks using waste materials. Its product suite includes the Carbon Cutter device for particulate capture and the Net Zero Machine that converts captured emissions into construction materials. EcoGuard's platform, built on Hedera distributed ledger technology (DLT), provides end to end MRV, registry grade traceability and digital carbon credit issuance.
Under the agreement, EcoGuard will digitise Pi Green's methodology in accordance with global standards and Article six requirements to enable digitally verifiable projects. Pi Green's co founder and chief executive said the next phase of industrial decarbonisation will be defined by the ability to measure, verify and scale impact with credibility and that the partnership is a step toward a digitally enabled market ready framework. EcoGuard's chief executive said the alliance responds to the new era of carbon markets in which trust, transparency and auditability are foundational and that the combined capabilities will help clients move from fragmented manual documentation to robust technology enabled carbon project frameworks.
