Brokering of Carbon Credits

Brokering of Carbon Credits

The access to high quality emission reduction projects is getting increasingly challenging. Demand is outpacing supply, but as requirements for sustainability qualities and the requirements for proof of project additionality are getting more demanding there are also sectors in which supply is exceeding demand.

CVDTC has a widespread network, which provides us with a solid platform for sellers and buyers to meet. Assessing the most relevant market for sellers, e.g. the voluntary market as opposed to the formal compliance market (CDM/JI); Gold Standard projects or normal standard; or assessing the best choices among different technologies for different types of buyers, are all elements that can determine the best possible match of parties to a deal.

CVDTC offers different options for the marketing of carbon credits. One is direct purchase, which has the advantage that it is fast. Another option is a mini-acutions where a small sample of buyers is invited to make a bid on basis of the minimum conditions indicated by the seller. More than 50 such auctions have ensured deals between buyers and sellers so far. We would welcome the chance to discuss how we could serve you the best, either as seller or buyer of CERs, and either through direct deals or through one of our auctions.
