Southern Climate Restoration Solutions develops natural solutions for carbon dioxide removal (CDR) in the Southeast US.
In the years ahead we will work with landowners and other partners to identify unique landscapes that with proper management can provide meaningful restoration of the carbon, nitrogen, and water cycles our world depends upon.

Current Projects
Carbon Farming Partnership
In partnership with USDA-NRCS, ACP’s Carbon Farming Partnership Project aims to expand monitoring of deep soil carbon on working agricultural lands across the Southeastern United States – where it covers more than 90 million acres – and assess how climate-smart farming practices are affecting carbon sequestration, a key factor in climate restoration.
Dominion Energy Solar Soil Carbon Project
The Solar Soil Carbon Project is piloting a method for solar energy facilities to provide carbon dioxide removal (CDR) and increased water holding capacity through regenerative vegetation management.
Central Appalachia Sustainable Aviation Fuel Project
The Central Appalachia Sustainable Aviation Fuel (SAV) Project is working with the University of Tennessee (UT) + Partners to pave the way for future construction of a sustainable fuel facility. Funded by the Federal Aviation Administration’s Aviation Sustainability Center (ASCENT) in recent years, UT has diligently laid the groundwork through research, partnerships, and other efforts for SAF stakeholders.

The Central Appalachia Sustainable Aviation Fuel Project is rooted in our Community Energy Program (2012-2018).
