Pinwheel Opens Global Call for High-Impact Nature-Based Carbon Removal Projects
Published by Todd Bush on August 6, 2025
Pinwheel just launched another application round, hunting for durable and nature-based carbon removal projects that can deliver real impact for major corporate clients.
Since launching at COP26 in Glasgow, Pinwheel's carved out a solid position in corporate Beyond Value Chain Mitigation (BVCM). They're helping big-name organizations fund meaningful climate and biodiversity projects worldwide. They actually pushed for the contribution-BVCM model that's now considered best practice by top standards bodies and climate NGOs.

Their platform lets clients fund high-impact projects globally while keeping stakeholders (clients, suppliers, employees) informed and engaged with project choices and impact tracking.
The numbers speak for themselves: millions generated for climate interventions, 50+ projects funded across every continent.
What They Want
Durable and nature-based carbon removal projects that can scale up. They're open to projects at any stage, whether you're already certified or just starting validation. Geography doesn't matter.
What They Don't Want (This Round)
- Carbon avoidance projects
- Projects without carbon credits
- Projects lacking a clear path to carbon credits/CORCs
They might consider these in future rounds, but not now.
Timeline
Applications close end of day (UK time) Friday, September 5th. But don't wait, they're reviewing applications as they come in since they have active client requests.
