This series has been created to help those with carbon emissions related obligations who need to complement their emissions reduction activity with carbon removal purchases. It is targeted specifically at the needs of buyers in private and public sector organizations [for example, heads of strategy, sustainability, procurement, finance, or operational risk], to address their questions and share early experience within this community.
The first part of the series will deal with the fundamentals of the CDR topic. In the second we will hear from pioneer buyers. From there, we will take the format where you want it to go. So please, help us steer the series by telling us what information you need access to!

In this episode of The CDR Procurement Guide, Eli spoke with Marian Krueger Co-Founder & Managing Director of remove. remove is Europe's leading whole ecosystem accelerator program, focused on maximizing the potential of the best CDR market solutions through support for early-stage startups from across the region, and now beyond. A non-profit program supported by leading climate investors and philanthropists, they support startups in all CDR pathways with funding, entrepreneurship and CDR expert coaching and in parallel contribute to the creation of a supportive European CDR ecosystem. Marian is a climate entrepreneur and a CDR ecosystem enabler. He's dedicated his career to the development of CDR and has been a key instrumental figure in the development of the European CDR community. He sits at the intersection of science and market solutions, starting with thought leadership in one of Europe's foremost academic institutions (ETH Zurich) and acting as a conductor of the flow of talent and ideas into an emerging market. Marian Krueger could best be described as an impact entrepreneur: first as a venture developer at the German green utility, Innogy; then founding his own startup, Ucair, to increase photovoltaic yield using drones and AI data analytics; he then went on to join ETH Zurich’s Sustainability in Business Lab, ETH sus.lab, as Decarbonisation Lead, where he co-founded the remove accelerator.

There is no substitute for seeing CDR solutions physically. Seeing is believing! The different approaches to buying, either building internal expertise or working with external experts. Why we should not see a choice between emissions reduction or carbon removal, but pursue both in parallel. The need for C-level support for CDR purchases from the outset. Marian’s belief that there are strategic opportunities from being early to CDR procurement beyond meeting public commitments of meeting net zero by a date and removing historical emissions. - Relevant Links- Marian’s LinkedIn remove Accelerator’s website Race to Zero Microsoft procurement process/learnings ETH sus.lab/BMW Foundation From Awareness to Action: The Six Building Blocks for Purchasing Carbon Removal Carbon Gap Envisioning a carbon removal strategy for Europe…
