Vegetarian Rocket Engine Powers Data Centers and Removes Carbon How a “vegetarian rocket engine” is changing energy for data centers
Can a vegetarian rocket engine really power the future of clean energy? Arbor Energy thinks so—and it just secured $41 million from Frontier, the carbon removal initiative backed by Stripe, Google, and Meta. This next-gen biomass technology promises to deliver carbon-free electricity while capturing and storing CO2 emissions underground. With climate concerns mounting and energy demand from data centers soaring, the vegetarian rocket engine could offer a scalable solution that’s both green and groundbreaking.

At the heart of Arbor’s innovation is a process called biomass carbon removal and storage (BiCRS). Unlike traditional energy systems, BiCRS captures nearly all carbon emissions from burning biomass—thanks to the natural CO2 drawdown from plants. Arbor’s twist? A high-efficiency design inspired by rocket engineering. The system converts waste …
