Carbon Offset Program Design
Once measured, investors can choose to reduce their financed emissions through the purchase of carbon offsets. Carbon offsets provide project developers with funds that go toward the avoidance or reduction of greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions. As these voluntary markets are unregulated, offsets raise legitimate questions regarding their effectiveness, verifiability, permanency, and additionality.
Our services are designed to help investors:
- Understand the carbon offset markets, different types, and the pros and cons of using offsets at the portfolio level.
- Develop a strategy for utilizing offsets as part of an overall portfolio decarbonization strategy.
- Determine the differences between legitimate, effective offsets, and greenwashing.
- Evaluate purchase options and help select the offset providers that will secure high-quality, verified offsets.
