Inherit closes NOK 40M round to scale carbon removal operations
Inherit Carbon Solutions has raised NOK 40 million in new funding, valuing the company at NOK 130 million. The round includes returning investors Arkwright X, Equinor Ventures, Momentum and Farvatn.
The funding was reported by Dagens Næringsliv.
The round closed as Inherit entered operations. In February 2026, we launched the world's first permanent carbon removal project from biogas with geological storage, capturing biogenic CO2 at the Veas wastewater treatment plant and storing it beneath the North Sea via Northern Lights.
“We are no longer asking investors to believe in a concept. We are showing them a working value chain, from capture at a biogas facility to permanent geological storage.”

CEO Inherit
This is the third time Inherit has raised capital. In 2022, Equinor Ventures led our first seed round alongside Stratel and StartupLab. At that point, Inherit was an idea backed by conviction: that biogenic CO2 from organic waste could be captured and permanently stored at scale.
In early 2024, we closed an oversubscribed round that broadened our investor base both internationally and across the Nordics, with Sumitomo Corporation, Farvatn, Momentum and Arkwright X joining alongside existing investors. That round gave us the partnerships and resources to develop our first carbon removal project.
This latest round enables us to focus on what is ahead: developing new carbon removal projects and delivering verified, permanent carbon removal to companies working towards net zero. We are grateful to Arkwright X, Equinor Ventures, Momentum and Farvatn for their continued support.
