At olneo, we believe the future of carbon removal begins where the needs and opportunities are greatest. We are building a new climate economy across Africa and the Middle East, rooted in regeneration, resilience, and innovation.
Africa and the MENA region are on the frontlines of the climate crisis, facing fragile ecosystems, increasingly degraded soils, and rising environmental stress.At olneo, we turn these systemic challenges into climate opportunities through science, technology, and deeply local solutions with global relevance.
A regenerative loop to fight desertification and remove carbon. olneo operates a closed-loop, climate-positive model that restores degraded lands, captures atmospheric CO₂, and revitalizes agriculture, while strengthening local ecosystems and empowering communities.
We start by restoring underused agricultural lands - reducing water stress, limiting evapotranspiration, and preserving fragile microclimates
We turn agricultural waste into high-quality biochar - a clean, valuable material for soil and climate impact.
We deliver biochar and support its use through scientific protocols - to improve soil health, water retention, and crop resilience.
We support replanting and agroforestry systems that regenerate soils, diversify crops, and strengthen local economies.
At olneo, we scale certified biochar-based CDR projects designed for long-term carbon sequestration - while generating real benefits for soils, farmers, and local economies. By 2030 :
Real-time, auditable, certifiable data. Full transparency from biomassto credits.
Integrated sensors for biomass, emissions, andoperational optimization.
Track land use & impact from space. Scalable. Reliable.
Certified outputs. Verified climate benefits.
Each site features its own real-time digital interfacefor stakeholders.
Rooted in Algeria, designed to scale.
Our model is built to scale across Africa and the MENA region, creating a new carbon and soil economy from local ecosystems outward.
A human-centered mission. Reconnecting lands, knowledge, and generations by empowering rural communities around biochar innovation.
Foster local cooperatives and resource-sharing ecosystems.
Cultivate regenerative agriculture skills and intergenerational learning.
Share local voices, create new climate narratives.
