Olivier REINAUD
Co-founder & Managing Director
NetZero
 
I am the co-founder and managing director of NetZero, a climate venture leveraging biochar to perform long-term atmospheric carbon removal. In 2021, NetZero launched Africa's first industrial-scale biochar production plant in Cameroon, and is currently building a second-generation plant in Brazil - also a first in South America. On top of carbon removal, our model brings strong social co-benefits in agriculture and access to energy. NetZero’s mission is to bring biochar at scale in the tropics - "For climate and people, now."

In 2022, NetZero was selected as one of the world’s most promising carbon removal projects in Elon Musk’s XPRIZE Carbon Removal competition. It also received the "Efficient Solution" label from the Solar Impulse Foundation, which recognises innovative models that meet Feasibility, Environmental, and Profitability criteria. NetZero's first carbon credits were certified by Puro, the leading certification standard for biochar carbon removal, and sold to Boston Consulting Group (BCG) as part of a long-term purchase agreement.

Prior to launching NetZero, I worked at Pro-Natura International, an NGO fostering innovative sustainable development projects in the Global South, with a strong focus on biochar.

I have a background in Business Management and Political Science.
