The carbon credit certification process primarily involves the following steps: project design and documentation, validation by a third-party, registration with a recognized standard, monitoring, and finally verification and issuance of credits.
Timeline for Project Registration The length of the validation process varies from project to project. It can take up to a year or longer (in rare cases). After a successful validation, the project proponent requests project registration with Verra as outlined in the Registration and Issuance Process (PDF) document.
Verra's Methodology Change and Requantification Procedure allows VCS Program projects to update methodologies used in past verification periods, align previous monitoring and verification reports with updated methodology versions, and requantify greenhouse gas (GHG) emission reductions and removals from past periods.
Start-up funding for the VCS Association came from the Climate Group, the IETA, and the WBCSD. Costs are covered by a levy charged at the point of Voluntary Carbon Unit (VCU) issuance. The VCS is now a program of Verra which houses the VCS, and the CCBS among other environmental standards.
We assess applications for ACCUs against the eligibility requirements for your project's method. We have up to 90 days to process crediting applications.
Account applications may be submitted by clicking on “Open An Account” at the top right corner of the Verra Registry site. Note that all registry account applicants will be subject to strict “Know-Your-Customer” background checks.
There are three core components of a carbon crediting program: Eligibility definitions and rules for the design and early implementation phase of a project. They can include additionality and baseline methodologies, definitions of accepted project types, and procedures for validating project activities.
Verified Carbon Standard (VCS) Methodologies are technical documents used by project developers to quantify the GHG benefits of different project types.
A version control system is a kind of software that helps the developer team to efficiently communicate and manage(track) all the changes that have been made to the source code along with the information like who made and what changes have been made.
VCS methodologies set out detailed procedures for quantifying the real greenhouse gas (GHG) benefits of a project and provide guidance to help project developers determine project boundaries, set baselines, assess additionality, and ultimately quantify the GHG emissions that were reduced or removed.
