Carbon Offset Methodology Development
Corporate Sustainability Advisory Services
Experience
Mr. Osman has developed 23 methodologies across multiple national and state-level compliance and voluntary programs. Mr. Beauchamp has contributed to the development and approval of 19 Verra methodologies.
Our team is currently developing two methodologies (compliance and voluntary markets), A Verra Concept Note for emerging dMRV technology, and is reviewing a methodology on behalf of an emerging offset marketplace. Our experience spans all project types and multiple voluntary and compliance offset programs, including: CAR, VCS, OneShot.Earth, California Compliance Offset Program, Ontario compliance program, Quebec compliance program, Mexican Federal offset program, and the Canadian Federal offset program.
Offset Methodology Development Capabilities
Development of new carbon offset methodologies or updating existing methodologies – across any project type
Our work covers all aspects of methodology development, including initial scoping, developing concept notes, methodology drafting, additionality analysis, common-practice assessments, leakage assessment, developing process for the approval of emerging technologies, developing equations, leading multi-disciplinary stakeholder engagement processes, training of project developers/verifiers in use of methodologies.
