Offset is not a silver bullet, but a tool for neutralization
The sustainability transition requires neutralization to meet national and international reduction requirements, including the net zero commitment. Green bank financing could mobilize hundreds of billions in investment toward net-zero emissions by 2050 as well as advancing environmental justice in the Globe.
Businesses can effectively balance their own carbon footprint by identifying opportunities for improvement in processes/production and adopting measures to reduce emissions, accelerating the sustainable transition.
Offsetting greenhouse gas emissions is a powerful complementary strategy in the fight against climate change. It supports initiatives that capture or prevent emissions, reinforces commitment to sustainable development, and obtains financial and reputational gain.
CarbonZerø's robust monitoring plan tracks project activities and quantifies the carbon reductions achieved, ensuring transparency through auditing and certification with international endorsed agencies.
key challenges facing the industry.
This list is not exhaustive and does not claim to be a definitive account of the industry. However, it accurately summarizes the main challenges that CarbonZerø´s clients report to us.
01
Project Development
Developing projects that generate carbon credits (e.g., reforestation, renewable energy, carbon capture) requires significant upfront investment. These projects need feasibility studies, technology infrastructure, and long-term operational management before they can issue credits.
03
Price Volatility
Carbon credit prices can fluctuate significantly due to policy changes, regulatory developments, or shifts in demand. For example, the price of carbon credits in the EU ETS rose sharply from €25 per ton in 2020 to over €80 in 2023. This price volatility makes it harder for companies to predict cost or manage financial risks.
05
Buyer Trust
Corporations that purchase carbon credits (to offset their emissions) tend to favor established providers with proven track records. New entrants must work hard to build trust and demonstrate the quality of their credits.
02
Technology and Infrastructure
Technology and Infrastructure: To trade, verify, and manage carbon credits, companies may need sophisticated platforms or systems, which require capital investment in blockchain, data analytics, or trading systems.
04
Dominance of Established Players
Large companies, such as BP, Shell, and ENGIE, as well as specialized carbon market leaders like South Pole or Verra, have already established themselves as key players. They have the financial resources, market access, and technical expertise to dominate both the compliance and voluntary carbon markets.
06
Project Saturation in Popular Areas
Some areas, like renewable energy, already have numerous projects competing for attention. For new entrants, finding a niche or unique project that stands out and attracts buyers is becoming more difficult.
