UNDO │ Carbon Removal

🏆 From Idea to Impact: XPRIZE Carbon Removal winners are in! 🌏 We’re proud to have collaborated with @xprize on the groundbreaking $100M #XPRIZECarbonRemovalcompetition. Over the past four years, we’ve witnessed incredible momentum in the carbon removal space. The competition galvanized over 1,300 teams from 88 countries to design, build, and deploy innovative carbon removal technologies across four tracks: Air, Land, Ocean, and Rocks. 🌱 The winning teams, selected from 20 impressive finalists across 11 countries, each successfully removed more than 1,000 net tonnes of CO₂ in the final year—meeting XPRIZE’s bold demonstration threshold and marking a major milestone on the path to gigatonne scale. 🏆 Grand prize winner - $50M: @mati_carbon 🥇 1st Runner-Up – $15M: @NetZero 🥈 2nd Runner-Up – $8M: @VaultedDeep 🥉 3rd Runner-Up – $5M: @undocarbon 🌊 XFACTOR Ocean – $1M: @planetary_tech 💨 XFACTOR Air - $1M: Project Hajar (@4401earth and @capture_air) 📽 Learn more about the winners here: youtu.be/Ta_slMqnW5w Collectively, the 20 Finalists have: 📈 Sold over 892,000 tonnes of CDR 💸 Secured more than $400 million in investment 🔬 These teams represent some of the most promising, scalable, and high-quality carbon removal solutions in the world—and reflect the diversity of methods needed to scale across geographies and contexts. 👏 A big round of appreciation for the all the finalists and the participants in the competition and to the team at XPRIZE for their stellar contribution to take CDR to new heights!
