Sustainable Revenue From Carbon Credits
A carbon credit is a certificate representing the reduction of one ton of CO₂ from the atmosphere. Businesses can earn or purchase them by investing in emission-reducing projects like renewable energy or reforestation.
Leading companies are investing in carbon credits
Earn carbon credits for your business
Implement Renewable Energy
Earn carbon credits by integrating renewable energy sources like solar and wheeling into your business operations. For example, installing solar panels on your premises reduces reliance on fossil fuels, lowers carbon emissions, and generates valuable carbon credits for every ton of CO₂ saved.
Boost Energy Efficiency
Improve your energy efficiency and earn carbon credits by upgrading lighting systems, optimizing HVAC, or adopting energy-efficient equipment. By cutting energy use, your business reduces its carbon footprint, with each kilowatt-hour saved resulting in significant emissions reductions and valuable carbon credits.
Support Sustainable Projects
Support certified sustainability projects like carbon sequestration, reforestation, or sustainable agriculture to earn carbon credits. These initiatives capture carbon, reduce emissions, and offset your business's footprint while promoting environmental protection and benefiting global communities.
Why it matters for your business
Financial Incentives and Cost Savings
Businesses can sell carbon credits to offset emissions, generating revenue while reducing operational costs and boosting profits.
Regulatory Compliance
Carbon credits offset the Carbon Tax under the South African Carbon Tax Act of 2019, which is set to rise to R462 per ton of CO₂ by 2030.
Strengthen Brand Reputation and Competitiveness
Earning carbon credits strengthens your brand's sustainability reputation, attracting eco-conscious investors and giving you a competitive edge.
Achieve global recognition with Verra-verified carbon credits
We register your carbon credits under Verra, the world's top certification standard, with third-party validation from a Verra-accredited auditor to ensure unmatched credibility.
How it works
Project Concept & Design
Identify a project that reduces carbon emissions, an meets Verra's eligibilty criteria.
Prepare Project Design Document (PDD)
The PDD outlines your project’s carbon reduction potential, baseline emissions, and monitoring plans.
Validation by Third Party Auditors
An independent verifier reviews the PDD to ensure the project can deliver the expected emission reductions.
Project Registration
Once validated, the project is registered with Verra and listed as an official carbon credit-generating project.
Monitoring & Verification
Once the project is active, emission reductions must be monitored, reported and submitted to Verra for verification.
Issuance of Carbon Credits
Once the reductions are verified, Verra issues carbon credits based on the amount of CO₂ reduced. These credits can then be traded or sold.
