- The U.S. biochar industry revenue was estimated to be approximately USD 157.0 Million in 2025, nearly tripling from USD 53.6 Million in 2023. Annual production rose from 86,893 metric tons in 2023 to 151,329 metric tons in 2025. The growth in revenue was because of rapid commercialization, capacity expansion, and the broadening carbon credit market, with the American Biochar Institute projecting a 133% compound annual growth rate in biochar production from 2025 to 2027, targeting more than 800,000 metric tons of production nationwide by 2027.
- As per expectations, rising corporate net-zero commitments and carbon dioxide removal (CDR) credit demand along with sustainable agriculture needs will drive market expansion in which biochar technologies enhance soil water holding capacity, improve nutrient retention, and sequester carbon for hundreds to thousands of years, supporting both agricultural productivity and climate mitigation goals. Demand for biochar-based CDR credits exceeds available supply in the U.S., with buyers seeking credits weekly and credits selling out almost immediately upon market entry.
