When my project's CarbonPlus credits sell, how do I get paid?
Project developers create an account on the Regen Registry platform and provide their bank account or credit card. Once a buyer purchases a credit, a payment is made to the project developer’s account after deducting the appropriate fees.
What are the steps to register a project on Regen Registry and issue CarbonPlus Credits?
If you do not have a methodology then you submit a Concept Note to begin the process and Regen Registry will work to support you with internal and external collaboration and networking to create a methodology. If you have a methodology already approved you Submit a Project Plan for approval: Regen Registry community reviews the project information for approval. Sign the Regen Registry Terms of Services and contracts. A dedicated Project Page is published on Regen Registry. Sign a Monitoring contract. Establish a Project Baseline - engage with a Monitor to measure the project baseline. Monitor Carbon Stock Change - engage a Monitor throughout Crediting Term to measure the change. Verify - engage with a 3rd party Verifier to validate project data and monitoring. Issue CarbonPlus Credit - Regen Registry issues CarbonPlus Credits based on positive ecological change after Monitoring rounds. Get Paid - Sell your credits through Regen Registry. Repeat Steps 9-12 for each CarbonPlus Credits issuance during the Project Term.
How is project data managed?
Regen Network aims to provide maximum transparency to CarbonPlus Credit buyers and other stakeholders by making the project documentation, including the Project Plan, Baseline Report, Monitoring Reports, and Verification Reports, publicly available on each Project Page. The data provided as inputs for the Monitoring and Verification process is not made public, but rather the outputs. In order to provide Project Proponents with data privacy, the Project Plan permits the designation of certain information as “commercially sensitive.” This information will be excluded from the public version of the Project Plan that is made available on the Project Page on Regen Registry.
How are CarbonPlus Credits issued for a project on Regen Registry?
The approved Methodology for each Credit Class defines how each underlying indicator, such as Soil Organic Carbon, is measured. Regen Registry issues CarbonPlus Credits based on the difference between the latest monitoring round’s measurements and the measurements during the latest issuance event (or the baseline measurement if this is the first issuance). When there is an increase in carbon stocks between monitoring rounds, a Project Proponent can issue a CarbonPlus Credit. Example: If a Baseline measurement = 1000 tons of CO2e and a Monitoring round measurement = 6000 tons of CO2e after uncertainty deductions, Regen Registry will issue 5000 CarbonPlus Credits (representing 5000 tons of CO2e) to the Project Proponent. Since the 5,000 CarbonPlus Credits are subject to Buffer Pool and Permanece Reversal Buffer deductions, the Project Proponent will receive 4000 credits (after 20% deductions). See the Program Guide for more details.
Each CarbonPlus Credit represents 1 ton of CO2e removed from the atmosphere.
What types of ecological change can Regen Registry monitor and issue CarbonPlus Credits for?
Other CarbonPlus Credits in development include forestry-based Credits (afforestation, reforestation, avoided deforestation, and agroforestry) and cropland-based Soil Organic Carbon Credits (no-till and low-till, cover crop, and crop rotation). In the future, Regen Registry will invite Credit designers and Methodology developers to innovate and design new Credits and Methodologies, subject to the approval and peer review processes required by Regen Registry.
The CarbonPlus Grasslands Credit focuses on Soil Organic Carbon in grasslands and pastureland.
