Common Questions
Frequently asked questions
What exactly is a carbon project?
A carbon project is any activity that reduces or removes greenhouse gas emissions, like renewable energy, clean cooking, waste-to-energy, or biogas systems. These projects can generate carbon credits, which are tradable units that represent avoided or removed emissions.
Do I need to understand carbon markets to join?
No. You don’t need to be an expert. Our role is to simplify the process, explain what’s needed, and connect you with the right developers and partners who can help structure and scale your project.
How do I know if my project is eligible?
We look at factors like the type of project, the scale, and whether it’s already operating. If your project reduces emissions in a measurable way and meets minimum scale requirements, there’s a good chance it can qualify. If it’s not ready yet, we can guide you on next steps.
Do you only work with big projects?
No. We work with projects of different sizes, as long as they have already started activities and are making a real impact.
What kinds of projects do you support?
We support existing projects in renewable energy, agroforestry, waste-to-value, biogas, regenerative farming, and conservation.
Can my project join if it is still small?
Yes, but there is a minimum scale needed for carbon projects to make financial sense. We work with projects that have already started activities and are operating at a level where they can realistically meet carbon market requirements. If a project is below that threshold, we guide them on how to grow or explore options like joining a grouped project until they are ready.
What is the value of working with Carbon90?
We make it easier for projects to connect with developers, investors, and carbon markets, while also providing the training and systems they need to succeed in the long term.
If my project joins, what role do I play?
You stay focused on running your project. The developer handles the technical carbon aspects. You provide data, cooperate during monitoring, and continue implementing the activity.
