About

Tera (Tera Carbon) is a Kenyan climate-tech startup that converts sugarcane bagasse from mills around Kisumu into biochar via pyrolysis, distributing it to local growers as a soil amendment. In June 2025 it became the first African project developer validated on the Riverse carbon registry, using a digital MRV system co-developed with Kenyan firm CYNK.
