en.Wedoany.com Reported - The Carbon Removal India Alliance (CRIA) has signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) with cKinetics, a global sustainability insights, innovation, and capital advisory firm, to jointly advance carbon dioxide removal (CDR) efforts in India.

As part of the collaboration, the two organizations will work to build the infrastructure needed for responsible CDR scaling in India, focusing on knowledge, capital, markets, and stakeholder engagement.

The two companies will focus on CDR research, organizing strategic convenings, ecosystem development, and initiatives aimed at fostering local carbon markets, thereby strengthening the existing foundation for high-integrity carbon removal in India.

This partnership aligns with CRIA's mission to catalyze the development of a durable CDR industry in India. The organization is a non-partisan alliance led by over 25 senior industry representatives. Meanwhile, globally positioned cKinetics will enrich the collaboration with its market insights and expertise, leveraging years of experience working with businesses, investors, industry groups, and thought leaders.

CRIA and cKinetics stated that their goal is to jointly create CDR knowledge products and joint projects that provide access to capital, strengthen existing market infrastructure, and position India as a global hub for high-integrity, durable carbon removal.

Upendra Bhatt, Co-founder and Managing Director of cKinetics, said the company has been actively supporting India's CDR ecosystem through advisory and market intelligence work, as well as CDR-related events held in India and globally. To support this field, cKinetics has also developed a public data resource called the "Carbon Removal and Offsets Monitor" to track key developments in the CDR space.

Bhatt noted that the partnership with CRIA builds on this foundation, reflecting a shared commitment to strengthening credible knowledge, market infrastructure, and investment channels in the CDR sector. Representing CRIA, Co-founder and CEO Asitava Sen expressed enthusiasm for welcoming cKinetics as a strategic partner, stating that by leveraging each other's expertise, resources, and networks, both parties aim to enhance the effectiveness and impact of their respective projects, and in doing so, support the establishment of a science-aligned, finance-ready CDR industry for India.
