Unlock carbon potential!
Carbon storage in land use systems
Embark on a journey to understand and optimize carbon storage in diverse land use systems, ranging from nature and (agro)forestry to urban green areas. Dive into the possibilities for CO2-emission offset and environmental improvement.
Carbon storage in land use systems
Knowing the potential for offset of CO2– emissions allows for the design of adapted, regenerative strategies that lead to more climate-resilient and more productive land use systems. We empower landowners and managers with innovative solutions paving the way for sustainable project funding.
Our unique blend of data science, carbon market knowledge and expertise in agri and forestry sectors ensures holistic, rapid insights for global carbon storage projects. Efficiency is our hallmark, with a digital approach that significantly shortens the timeframe for accurate carbon storage calculations. By reducing manual errors through automated scripts, we guarantee precision in results, offering a competitive edge in the evolving field of carbon storage solutions. Join us in transforming landscapes and securing a greener, more sustainable future.
BioGrowth Development uses a broad range of data processing and analytical tools to quantify the potential of carbon storage in different land use systems. This can be done for plant biomass (above- and belowground organic matter, dead or alive) or the soil organic carbon content (SOC).
We offer a streamlined, stepwise support process, from identifying the potential to the implementation and continuous monitoring of carbon storage in plants, soils and bio-based products, including forecasting future growth and accumulation of carbon.
Our detailed reports offer actionable insights, guiding clients in determining optimal locations for carbon storage, estimating storage limits and assessing risks in newly developed projects. Clear maps and location assessments accompany these reports, empowering informed decision-making for sustainable land use tailored to your needs.
Our expert analyses, spanning nature, forestry, agroforestry, agriculture and urban green areas, provide a deep understanding of the relationship between carbon and ecosystem services. This knowledge is not just crucial for project certifications and carbon credit generation but also plays a vital role in shaping sustainable landscapes.
For more information regarding our solutions and services on carbon storage in land-use systems and/or biobased applications please contact our experts.

BioGrowth Development: Call to Action for the Future of European Industry
On behalf of the BioGrowth Development, we draw your attention to this urgent call, supported by our partners and network: The future of European industry is at stake. Together with a broad coalition of over 70 companies, trade organizations, and NGOs, we urge the European Commission to create market demand for clean industrial products. Stimulating…
Digital tools for business development of feedstocks for biobased value chains
Shifting from fossil alternatives to biobased alternatives in all industries has become a global priority. Where it concerns upcycling of existing by-products from common food and agro-industries or other biomass, the key to success is having relevant data to perform thorough research for creating qualitative business strategies. This is often a challenge for companies or…
Value of digital tools for the development of global NBS projects
Reliable impact projections – the key to successful management. Worldwide, there is a huge increase in the demand for high-quality nature-based solutions (NBS) through land use projects to combat climate change. Examples of such NBS land-use projects are: afforestation in degraded areas or implementing more sustainable agriculture practices with multiple activities (adding biochar to the…
The crowning glory of our work!
With due pride, we would like to inform you that from 1st July 2023, we will be situated at our new office in Breda! After many great years of working in Bergen op Zoom, at the iconic address ‘Boerenverdriet’ / ‘Farmer sadness’, we will be moving to Keizerstraat 13 in Breda. Moving office is necessary…

Carbon storage in the chain for woody biomass from the dry area of Rijkswaterstaat
The Ministry of Infrastructure and Water Management, DG Mobility, is investigating a possible role in the National Forest Strategy (LNV). One of the components of this exploration is more insight into the carbon storage that this possible contribution can make, both in the acreage and when used in products that remove the carbon from the…
Green chemistry from biomass
Discussions about the sustainability of woody biomass, which have been taking place in the Netherlands for some time now, are also increasingly making headlines elsewhere in Europe. Certainly when it comes to generating energy. With the increasing attention to green chemistry, the chemical sectors will also be affected sooner or later. This makes reliable certification…
