CharCOOL Limited

Our company develops innovative carbon-negative biochar plaster. We use customised biochar to produce carbon-negative biochar plaster to demonstrate the performance and energy-saving benefits of our products and integrate Internet of Things and artificial intelligence technologies to quantify the environmental, energy, and economic benefits of the buildings where our products are applied, helping our users to assess the energy-saving and CO2 emission reduction of the buildings in a visual way. Our project deliverables will facilitate the industrialisation and large-scale application of smart biochar plaster to reduce building energy consumption and mitigate the urban heat island effect in a carbon-negative, simple and effective manner.
