The Challenge

The organization faced several roadblocks in their data and sustainability mission. As operations expanded across multiple deployments, the client needed a scalable and automated way to monitor biochar production, net carbon removal, and environmental impact in real time.

Lack of Real-Time Visibility

No centralized system existed to monitor biochar production and net carbon removal in real time.

Fragmented Data Landscape

Data collected across multiple deployments was inconsistent and difficult to analyze.

The objective was to build a scalable, automated solution to monitor carbon emissions and optimize environmental impact in real time.

Missed Upselling Opportunities

Growing operations made it increasingly difficult to manage emissions data at scale.

Our Solution

OnPoint Insights delivered an integrated, cloud-native data solution leveraging Carbon Pilot API, Azure Data Lake Storage, and Databricks.

The solution automated data collection, centralized emissions data, and delivered real-time dashboards to support faster and more transparent sustainability decisions.

01
Automated Data Collection

Integrated the Carbon Pilot API to continuously ingest biochar production and net carbon removal data from IoT sensors, replacing manual reporting.

02
Centralized Data Lake

Implemented Azure Data Lake Storage to securely store structured and unstructured emissions data across all locations.

03
Advanced Analytics in Databricks

Cleaned, processed, and modeled data to derive insights for forecasting and sustainability planning.

04
Real-Time Dashboards

Built interactive Databricks dashboards to visualize site-wise carbon removal, threshold breaches, and sustainability KPIs, empowering decision-makers and local leaders to act quickly.
