Carbon and compliance strategy
Establishing obligation, market route, credit quality requirement and build versus buy.
By establishing first whether it is an obligated entity, what it must report, and whether it needs credits to meet a legal requirement or a voluntary commitment. Those answers determine which market applies, what quality of credit is acceptable, and what should be built rather than bought.
What this includes
- Obligated entity status assessment
- Compliance and voluntary market route comparison
- Credit quality and durability threshold setting
- Build versus buy analysis for removal
- Reporting and disclosure requirement mapping
- Reputational risk screening on candidate credits
- What you receiveOutput

- Before purchasing credits or committing to a target.
Buying cheap credits to close a gap. Low quality credits have repeatedly become a reputational liability larger than the gap they closed.
