"I have had the pleasure of working with the Ecobase team on an afforestation project and I couldn't be happier with their service. The team was fast and responsive, and all we had to do was send them a shape file of our planting area. They handled the analysis with ease and expertise. I highly recommend this company to anyone looking to generate carbon credits through afforestation activities. The team is not only knowledgeable, but they also have fantastic client service."
Frequently asked questions
What are carbon credits?
Carbon credits are a means of offsetting the emissions of carbon dioxide (CO2) by funding or investing in carbon-reducing projects. One carbon credit represents the reduction or removal of one metric ton of CO2 from the atmosphere. In other words, one carbon credit is proof that one tone of CO2 has been captured from the air.
How are carbon credits calculated?
Carbon sequestration involves a comprehensive evaluation of various factors that contribute to the capture and storage of carbon dioxide. The most significant factors include: (a) the growth of biological entities such as plants and trees, (b) the carbon stored in wood products from biomass grown on the land, (c) emissions from the preparation and planting processes, including clearing of shrubs, and (d) the avoidance of emissions through actions such as not mowing pastureland in areas designated for afforestation.
Who buys the carbon credits?
While anyone can purchase carbon credits, our buyers are primarily large international and local companies.
Can I manage my land as I want?
Yes.
Can the land in the project be sold?
Yes, it is beneficial to transfer the carbon credit contract to the new landowner. If the new landowner chooses not to participate in the project, it is equivalent to abandoning the project.
What can be planted?
Any native species and domesticated species.
Why is the certification important?
Large carbon buyers are typically only able to purchase certified carbon credits as these are the only ones that can be used to offset their carbon footprint. For landowners, this means that carbon credits from certified projects will be sold at higher prices to a stable client base.
Does Ecobase conduct stakeholder consultations?
Yes, you can find the latest recording here.
What can a landowner do with the issued credits?
Carbon credits can be pre-sold, sold, or held, they do not expire. They can be sold through the Ecobase platform or directly to a carbon buyer without any additional fees.
