„The unfashionable truth is that the only way to take direct responsibility for [your] emissions is to enable an equivalent amount to be absorbed, or avoid being emitted, elsewhere.
In short, to offset.”
(Martin Wright, Guardian Sustainable Business)

“Climate neutrality is an inescapable element
of ecological sustainability.”
– (László A. Rampasek)

Carbon Credit Project Registration: The First Step Toward Verified Carbon Units

One of the key requirements of the carbon credit market is the presence of reliable and verified projects.

Carbon Credit Project Registration: The First Step Toward Verified Carbon Units

To create carbon units, it is essential that the project is registered and transparent, meeting international standards and professional requirements.

Why is registration necessary?

Launching a new carbon credit project is a long and complex process that ensures the project’s authenticity and effectiveness. Registration is not just an administrative step but also a crucial foundation for the project’s scientific and financial validation.

The long road to carbon credits

  1. Developing a methodology – For new types of projects, a calculation and measurement methodology must be developed. If no suitable regulation exists, it must be standardized.
  2. Data collection and carbon balance preparation – The project’s carbon sequestration or emission reduction potential must be substantiated with detailed data.
  3. Verification and audits – The project’s results are verified and validated by independent organizations to ensure that the carbon credits genuinely represent the declared emission reductions.
  4. International recognition – Verified carbon credits must stand up to scrutiny in all professional forums and market mechanisms.
