Services

We manage the entire process and jump through the hoops so our partners and clients don’t have to

  • Initial project screen to determine eligibility for carbon offsets

  • Recommendations for which registries and methodologies to use

  • Create a new methodology or amend an existing one

  • Manage the entire carbon project cycle – project design documentation, baseline assessment, and all actions to ensure project registration

  • Design of monitoring protocols, training local teams, and management of verification

  • Credit yield management, actions to ensure credits continue to get issued over time

  • Finding a buyer and helping negotiate the sale of credits

  • Advisory services in related areas, such as the 45Q tax credit for carbon capture, storage and utilization

New Methodology Approval
This can actually be the most challenging part. Carbonomics can assess a project's ability to adhere to an existing methodology, or we can write a completely new one if required.
Project Identification & Feasibility
Will the project meet all registry guidelines on additionality, stakeholder consultations, baseline and monitoring requirements? This includes an assessment of overall feasibility for the project to generate carbon credits and find buyers in the market.
Project Design Document (PDD)
Development of all project documentation and how the project conforms with registry guidelines.
Conformance with Carbon Standard
Manage the independent audit process and all other tasks necessary to register the project, thus making it eligible to generate credits.
Project Start Up
When the project becomes operational, we can start to measure and monitor the emission reductions
Measuring Emission Reductions
We can monitor emission reductions, identifying and solving problems before they start impacting the actual credits issued. This is referred to as "credit yield management."
Getting Credits Issued
We can draft all monitoring reports and manage auditor verification until the process is complete and credits are issued and sold.

Life Cycle Assessment
ISO-Compliant, Built for Carbon Claims

Rigorous LCA underpins credible carbon accounting — and for many of the novel technologies we work with, it's what proves a net climate benefit exists at all. LCAs are also required for registries like Puro. Carbonomics and its partners can deliver LCAs built to the full governing ISO framework — ISO 14040 (principles and framework) and ISO 14044 (requirements and guidelines).

Each LCA will have goal and scope definition, life cycle inventory (LCI), life cycle impact assessment (LCIA), and interpretation — with clearly defined functional units and system boundaries (cradle-to-gate through cradle-to-grave). We can use client data when, supplemented by recognized databases like ecoinvent.

Build a Stronger, More Defensible Carbon Project

Carbonomics can work upstream, quickly scanning your carbon offset idea and tell you if it makes sense, what the risks are and your chances of success (this can save you a lot of time). Think of us as your carbon architect. 

Project cycle review: Carbonomics can review your existing PDD or methodology before submission to identify gaps and opportunities for improvement. We can come up with validation and verification check-lists before the auditors do, so clients are better prepared -- and can get through the process more efficiently. 

This is useful for the quantitative sections of these documents, but even more important for the qualitative ones. We can be your "carbon judge" for those hard-to-answer questions that often break projects deep into the process:

  • Is the baseline actually defensible?

  • Is the activity genuinely additional? What if the project makes sense economically without carbon revenue?

  • For PACM projects, what is the best way to approach those new downward adjustment factors?

  • Is the monitoring approach practical? Can the proponent actually collect the required data?

  • Will a VVB challenge the assumptions?

  • Have we figured out all the double-counting issues?

  • Are leakage and permanence adequately addressed?

  • Is the quantification conservative?

  • Will the registry accept all our interpretations?

  • Where are there inconsistent numbers, unsupported assumptions, internal contradictions, missing evidence, questionable baseline assumptions and imprecise monitoring data?

Those are judgment problems – Carbonomics helps make your project registrable, defensible and financeable.

Finding the Right Methodology for Your Carbon Project

Carbonomics doesn't just write methodologies. We have developed a methodology intelligence system. If a client says: “We want to generate carbon credits from X” we analyze hundreds of pages of standards, methodologies, tools, precedents and registry decisions and produce:

Methodology landscape

  • existing applicable methodologies

  • partially applicable methodologies

  • methodological gaps

  • conflicting requirements

  • potential alternatives

In other words, we determine the most defensible carbon-crediting methodology for your technology.

For investors, carbon offset buyers or others in the market, Carbonomics can use its AI-driven tools to conduct due diligence on projects, assessing major risks, and providing recommended remediation to lower the risk of projects not issuing credits or, just as bad, reputational harm. This service could be useful not just for project developers, but also carbon funds, corporate buyers, insurers, lenders, carbon marketplaces and technology companies.
