XELS, a carbon offset platform utilizing blockchain and other technologies, announced that it has joined forces with Albo Climate, which specializes visualization of carbon sequestration projects through satellite imagery.

The collaboration will enable XELS to validate nature-based carbon offset projects, including protected lands and reforestation efforts, through the use of Albo Climate’s scanning and monitoring systems.

XELS is sourcing “carbon sinks” and other nature-based climate solutions, which the company believes are the most beneficial to the environment and humanity at large.

Albo Climate combines artificial intelligence, remote sensing, and satellite imaging to determine how much carbon dioxide is removed by plants and soil in a specific area.

“The key to unlock the carbon credit markets and have a significant impact on climate change is to bring cutting edge technologies – this is the right combination Albo Climate and XELS are bringing,” said Jacques Amselem, CEO, Albo Climate. “Together, we are combining Albo Climate’s ultra-accurate and transparent AI quantification of CO2 sequestration, with XELS secure block-chain-powered carbon credits trading.”
