Case Studies

There are over 170 carbon project methodologies out there — and it is possible to find one that helps you achieve your climate goals while strengthening your branding needs!

At NetaCarbon, we pride ourselves in supporting companies or brands to create a coherent, mission-aligned carbon strategy to drive higher return on investment for your climate budget.

What does a well-crafted carbon strategy look like? Take a look at the possibilities below.

Customizable carbon investment opportunities

Best suited for…

Food, retail, consumer goods, and healthcare companies with strong value proprosition on community and healthy lifestyle. Especially fitting for companies with a traceable supply chain (and scope 3 emission sources) in agriculture.

What to highlight…

Linked to agricultural supply chain

Community and health co-benefits

A variety of project locations available

Traceable impact on poverty reduction

Relatively affordable price range per ton

Household biodigesters

Biodigesters convert animal wastes into biogas that can be used for cooking and other energy needs, as well as organic fertilizers for agricultural purposes. These projects target smallholder rural farmers in lower-income countries where access to clean fuels is scarce and expensive.

Biodigester projects reduce both methane emissions from waste and carbon emissions from using traditional fuel sources for cooking and heating. They create community and health co-benefits, especially for women and children, by reducing pre-mature deaths from cooking smokes and improving economic outcomes for rural communities.

Refrigerant destruction

These projects collects and properly disposes refrigerants used in cooling systems that contain ozone depleting substances (ODS) that could trap heat and increase greenhouse effect when released into the atmosphere.

These credits are considered very high quality from a carbon integrity perspective and consistently receive high ratings, since these refrigerants are destroyed permanently,. The case for additionality is strong as there are no other revenue sources beyond carbon credits. Notably, refrigerant destruction methodologies are recently approved by the Integrity Council of the VCM as high-integrity carbon credits.

Biochar

Biochar is biomass (such as wood and leaves) heated at high temperatures without oxygen that concentrates carbon. Since biochar is very resistant to decomposing, it could sequester carbon for more than hundreds of years. The process can also yield renewable fuels as its by-products.

Many biochar projects also provide agricultural co-benefits such as improved soil health and nutrient conservation as a form of regenerative agriculture. While there is an increasing number of biochar prorject developers, it is very important to consider their quality, which might vary based on feedstock, production conditions, and even storage.
