The global marketplace for CCUS-derived carbon credits.

Why CCUS?

Permanent

Carbon Capture, Utilization, and Storage (CCUS) is a proven and safe method of extracting CO2 from industrial processes and sequestering it in underground geological formations permanently.

Scalable

CCUS is the only scalable solution to meeting our global decarbonization objectives, a fact recognized by both the UN’s Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) and the International Energy Agency (IEA).

Measurable & Regulated

The CO2 sequestered through CCUS is precisely measured through EPA or ISO-approved meters and the process is highly regulated by government agencies and/or ISO standards.

Why Blockchain?

Immutable

Transactions that occur on a blockchain network are immutable and cannot be altered or tampered with, providing a permanent decentralized record of transactions and carbon offset certificate data.

Transparent

All transactions and data stored on the blockchain are visible to all participants in the network and to the general public. This transparency promotes trust and accountability, ensuring a company’s offsetting activities are open and publicly auditable.

Decentralized & Secure

Public blockchains operate on a decentralized network of computers (nodes). No single entity has control over the entire network, making it resistant to centralized control or single points of failure. These networks deploy advanced cryptographic techniques to secure data and transactions.

Our Advantages

Combining blockchain + CCUS is unique and hugely beneficial for companies looking to offset their CO2 emissions. But what CarbonKerma offers is more than the sum of these important parts.

How CarbonKerma Works

Here’s an overview of how carbon capturers (CCUS facilities) and emitters (individuals and businesses) can use CarbonKerma to meet their mutually beneficial goals.

Step 1

Carbon Measurement & Storage

Carbon is captured and stored under a regulated and standards-based process before tonnage qualifies to be listed on our Platform.

Step 2

Capturer Verification Process

For Capturers/Sinkers to be qualified to bring their tonnage onto our Platform, they must submit their EPA-approved Monitoring, Reporting, and Verification (MRV) Plan and GHG Report under the Token Acquisition tab, and declare that the environmental attributes have not been previously used.

Step 3

Tokenization of Carbon Credits

Once the request is reviewed, verified, and approved by the CarbonKerma team, the submitted metric tonnes of CO2 are converted to CarbonKerma tokens (CKT) on a per-tonne basis and issued to the custody of the capturer. Each CKT is equal to one sequestered metric tonne of CO2.

Step 4

List on CarbonKerma

Using our CarbonKerma Exchange marketplace, Capturers can list their CKTs on our Platform at their desired price.

Step 5

Emitters Purchase

Carbon Emitters (Individuals and companies) Can Purchase Directly from CarbonKerma. Emitters can simply purchase the amount of CO2 they need to offset in CKTs on CarbonKerma.

Step 6

Carbon Offset

Retiring CKT Generates an Offset Certificate Buyers can offset their emissions by burning (retiring) CKT tokens. They will receive an Offset Certificate and a Unique Carbon Tag (UCT). This burning mechanism creates a permanent record of the transaction, and removes the tonnage from the Blockchain.

Our 100% Quality Guarantee

We are so confident in the authenticity and integrity of each carbon credit on our platform, that in the rare event our verification process falls short or if any issues arise with the carbon, we will step in and take full responsibility.

“We cannot simply switch off from fossil fuels to renewables. We still rely on coal, oil, and natural gas for 80% of our energy needs and developing countries rely heavily on fossil energy to power their industrialization. If we are to meet our Paris Accord goals, the wide scale deployment of CCUS, financed through a robust and trusted carbon offset market, is critical.”
