Creating trust in carbon markets
How
Insured Carbon Principles
Insurance-Backed Integrity
Verified carbon metric tonnes of CO2e are supported by invalidation insurance designed to protect against qualifying risks that may compromise credit integrity during the life of the credit.
Independent Verification
All verified carbon metric tonnes of CO2e are reviewed by competent third-party auditors using validated third-party methodologies and protocols.
Transparency and Traceability
Each carbon metric tonne of CO2e is recorded with supporting documentation, certificate references, audit reports and proof pointers that enable independent review and verification.
Clear Governance Structure
Registry operations, verification standards, and insurance coverage are distinct functions to define and preserve authenticity and accountability.
