Certification of Carbon Removals — Part 2

Description

The European Commission is developing a certification mechanism for nature-based (NBS) and technology-based carbon removal solutions (TBS). To support its development, this report reviews existing carbon removal certification mechanisms and methodologies. By documenting different approaches to key mechanism design issues, the report identifies and evaluates a range of options for the EU certification mechanism, supporting the development of a robust and effective system to incentivise uptake of carbon removals within Europe.The report also summarises key conclusions related to evaluation of NBS and TBS methodologies as a crucial base for the environmental integrity.This report is published alongside a second, related report,"Certification of carbon removals — Part 1: Synoptic review of carbon removal solutions”.
