• Real-Time Carbon Tracking: Mangrove’s digital MRV enables secure, real-time monitoring of CO₂ from capture to underground storage.
• Accelerated Credit Certification: Streamlined data workflows enhance speed and accuracy in issuing and verifying carbon removal credits.
• Blueprint for Scalable BECCS: The North Star project offers a replicable model for high-integrity, digitally verified carbon removal.

Carbon Alpha has partnered with Mangrove Systems to embed advanced digital monitoring, reporting, and verification (MRV) technology into its flagship North Star carbon removal project—Canada’s first large-scale bioenergy with carbon capture and storage (BECCS) initiative.

Developed in collaboration with the Meadow Lake Tribal Council (MLTC), the North Star project will capture emissions from sustainably sourced forestry waste at the MLTC Bioenergy Centre in Saskatchewan and sequester the CO₂ in deep geological formations. The project is on track to deliver 90,000 carbon removal credits annually, bolstering Canada’s net-zero goals and supporting local economic growth.

“This partnership marks a major step forward in our mission to deliver credible, measurable climate solutions,” said Patrick Elliott, COO of Carbon Alpha. “Mangrove’s technology ensures the highest degree of accuracy and transparency in North Star’s carbon removal process.”

Mangrove’s MRV platform consolidates data from field sensors, capture systems, and storage facilities into a tamper-proof, auditable ledger, providing end-to-end traceability for every tonne of CO₂ removed. This digital infrastructure supports regulatory compliance and enhances buyer and verifier confidence.

“North Star is a model for the future of scalable, high-integrity carbon removal,” said Brandon Vlaar, CEO of Mangrove Systems. “Our digital MRV solution is built to empower exactly this kind of impactful, data-driven climate action.”

Mangrove’s system also integrates directly with carbon registries, reducing friction in the validation and certification process and accelerating the issuance of high-quality carbon credits.

This collaboration sets a benchmark for digital-first BECCS projects, demonstrating how transparent data ecosystems can underpin trust and scalability in global carbon markets.
