Carbon Credits Category
Carbon Removal
Projects that actively remove CO2 from the atmosphere and store it over long durations, including emerging engineered and hybrid approaches.
Definition
Carbon removal credits are generated by interventions that capture atmospheric CO2 and store it in biomass, soils, or geological formations with verifiable permanence.
Project types
- Direct air capture with storage (DACCS)
- Biochar and biomass carbon removal
- Enhanced weathering and mineralization
- Hybrid forestry and engineered storage
Methodologies & standards
- Verra VCS carbon removal methodologies
- Puro.earth removal standards
- Gold Standard removal methodologies
- ISO 14064-aligned measurement frameworks
Environmental & social co-benefits
- Soil health improvements and yield stability
- Industrial decarbonization pathways
- Innovation in measurement and monitoring
- Potential local air quality benefits
Buyer suitability
Most suitable for buyers prioritizing durable removals and long-term claims, with clear accounting boundaries and transparent MRV.
