UniCarbo provides support at all stages of implementing projects of this scope, from registration to issuing credits.

Carbon Standards

Do you know how a carbon project is registered on the Verified Carbon Standard (VCS) platform?

The Verified Carbon Standard (VCS) is a voluntary carbon market mechanism that allows the registration, certification and subsequent issuance of carbon credits. The VCS is the standard of Verra, the world's largest certifier of voluntary carbon offsets, which sets out the rules and requirements that all carbon projects must follow in order to be certified and validated.

This standard is known for its rigorous methodological approach and broad international acceptance, ensuring that CO2 emission reduction projects are verified according to high and recognized quality standards.

O Gold Standard for Global Goals (GS) é um mecanismo voluntário de mercado de carbono que permite o registro, certificação e posterior emissão de créditos de carbono.

O GS tem como pilar os Objetivos do Desenvolvimento Sustentável (ODS), o que significa que além de reduzirem emissões de CO2 na atmosfera, os projetos precisam comprovar contribuições socioambientais alinhadas aos ODS da ONU. e econômicas alinhadas aos ODS da ONU.

O Global Carbon Council (GCC) é o primeiro mecanismo internacional voluntário de mercado de carbono sediado no Sul Global e, assim como outros mecanismos voluntários, permite o registro, certificação e posterior emissão de créditos de carbono.

Estabelecido pela Organização para Pesquisa e Desenvolvimento do Golfo em 2016, ο GCC registra projetos de alta qualidade que demonstraram adicionalidade na redução de emissões de CO2, no mundo inteiro.

O Cercarbono é o mecanismo de redução de emissões voluntário que desde 2017 atua no âmbito do mercado de carbono regulado da Colômbia, com mais de 160 projetos ativos

Ainda em fase de implementação se encontra o A 6.4, mercado de carbono regulado derivado do Artigo 6 do Acordo de Paris.
