Equilibrium, a climate-tech startup, has raised $3 million in seed funding from venture capital firms Kalaari Capital, Avaana Capital, and Peak XV Partners.
The company will use this money to upgrade its technology, accelerate its eight ongoing projects, and expand its operations.
“We’re strengthening agri-supply chains against climate-related disasters while simultaneously reducing and removing greenhouse gas emissions from the atmosphere,” said founder Siddhanth Jayaram.
“Our operations team handles the planting and management of the plantations, while our technology tracks their progress. Once the carbon credits are generated, we sell the carbon-removal units to major customers. Our clients range from project financiers who support carbon-removal initiatives to large tech firms and oil companies with net-zero targets,” he added.
Sampath P, partner, Kalaari Capital said, “It pairs deep agricultural and carbon science with a digitally-enabled operating system that makes on-ground implementation partners effective at scale. We see Equilibrium as a climate-resilience-first blueprint for strengthening nature-based solutions that carbon (credit) buyers can rely on for durable outcomes.”
Founded in 2024 by Siddhanth Jayaram, Equilibrium is a Bengaluru-based startup that offers full carbon removal solutions to help clients achieve net-zero emissions.
Equilibrium’s projects include agroforestry, regenerative farming, mangrove planting, and biochar, helping more than 60,000 farmers and coastal communities.
The company’s solutions remove carbon, increase farmers’ income, and turn agricultural and biomass waste into useful products. In the long term, these projects are expected to remove over 20 million tonnes of CO2.
