About Brilliant Planet

Brilliant Planet is a climate technology company based in London, founded in 2013.

The company focuses on permanent carbon removal by cultivating marine algae in hot, coastal deserts, aiming to sequester gigatons of CO2 annually. With a strong foundation in science and engineering, Brilliant Planet is dedicated to addressing climate change through innovative, large-scale solutions. The company operates pilot sites in Morocco and Oman and is progressing toward commercial-scale operations after extensive research and development. Brilliant Planet has identified vast areas of ideal desert locations that can permanently remove over three gigatons of CO2 per year without competing with forests or farmland. Their core technology replicates natural algae blooms year-round, enhancing carbon fixation and storage. Brilliant Planet offers permanent carbon removal credits derived from their algae cultivation, verified for high integrity. They serve corporations, including notable clients like Block, seeking reliable carbon removal solutions. Additionally, the company promotes local development by providing sustainable job opportunities in rural areas, ensuring their operations do not displace agricultural land or ecosystems.
