Tech Meets Terrain - Aeco and MVST Transform Peatland Restoration Operations

Aeco is addressing a critical environmental challenge: peatland restoration. Despite covering just 3% of the Earth’s surface, drained peatlands contribute 5% of global CO₂ emissions. Aeco aims to reverse this damage of drainage, and MVST is proud to support their mission to mitigate climate change and restore essential ecosystems.

With MVST’s support, Aeco is leveraging technology to scale restoration efforts, combine ecological expertise with capital access, and build tools that drive climate action.

This collaboration marks MVST’s second partnership with Aeco’s co-founder, emphasizing a strong and trusted relationship.
