Carbon Registry Infrastructure

We create transparent digital registries that document the entire lifecycle of carbon credits, including issuance, transfer and retirement. These systems prevent double counting, support Article 6.2 agreements, and maintain verifiable records for audit and reporting.

Trust in carbon markets depends on knowing exactly what a credit is, who holds it and what has happened to it. Our registry infrastructure provides that certainty. Every credit is assigned a unique serial identifier and tracked from the moment it is issued to the moment it is retired, creating a single, tamper-evident record that cannot be altered without detection.

Built for governments, programme operators, project developers and corporate buyers, our registries are designed to meet national and international requirements. They give authorities the tools to manage their carbon market activity with confidence, and give participants a clear, auditable trail for every transaction.

What Our Registries Do

Issuance

Credits are issued only after verified emission reductions or removals have been confirmed. Each credit receives a unique serial number linked to its project, vintage, methodology and verification documentation.

Transfer

Ownership changes are recorded in real time, with a complete and permanent history of every holder. Transfers are validated against account status and eligibility rules before they are completed.

Retirement

When a credit is used to meet a claim or compliance obligation, it is permanently retired and removed from circulation. Retirement records state the beneficiary and purpose, so the claim can be verified.

Preventing Double Counting

Double counting undermines climate integrity and market confidence. Our registries address it at every level:

  • Double issuance: unique serial numbers and cross-checks stop the same reduction being issued twice.
  • Double use: retired credits cannot be transferred or claimed again.
  • Double claiming: records show whether a credit is used towards a buyer’s claim or a country’s national target, supporting the application of corresponding adjustments.

Supporting Article 6.2 Agreements

Article 6.2 of the Paris Agreement allows countries to cooperate and transfer mitigation outcomes internationally. Doing so requires accurate tracking and reporting. Our registries support:

  • Recording of Internationally Transferred Mitigation Outcomes (ITMOs)
  • Tracking of authorisations, first transfers and corresponding adjustments
  • Data structures aligned with reporting needs under the Paris Agreement’s transparency framework
  • Clear separation between authorised and non-authorised credits
  • Records that countries can use for their own reporting and review

Built for Audit and Reporting

Every action in the registry is time-stamped, attributed and permanently logged. This gives auditors, regulators and verifiers a complete evidence trail without manual reconciliation.

  • Full transaction history for every credit
  • Role-based access and secure account management
  • Exportable reports for audit, compliance and public disclosure
  • Public-facing views that allow anyone to confirm a credit’s status
  • Secure architecture with data integrity controls and backup

Frequently Asked Questions

What is a carbon registry?

 A carbon registry is a digital system that records the issuance, ownership, transfer and retirement of carbon credits, so each credit can be uniquely identified and tracked.

How does a registry prevent double counting?

Each credit has a unique serial number and a single status at any time. Once retired, it cannot be used again, and records show whether it supports a buyer’s claim or a national target.

Can your registry support Article 6.2 transactions?

Yes. Our infrastructure is designed to record authorisations, transfers of mitigation outcomes and corresponding adjustments, helping countries meet their reporting obligations.

Is the registry publicly accessible?

Public views can be configured so that the status and history of a credit can be verified by anyone, while sensitive account details remain protected.

Can the registry be customised for a country or programme?

Yes. Registries can be configured to national rules, programme requirements and the type of credits issued.

Can it connect to other systems?

Registries can be designed to integrate with other registries, data platforms and monitoring systems.
