MINTED FOR GOOD

CarbonKerma provides the highest quality carbon credits to businesses and individuals who are looking to offset their hard-to-abate emissions. Not only do our credits combine the distinct advantages of CCUS and blockchain technology, but they’re backed by a 100% integrity guarantee so that you can offset with confidence.

Why CCUS?

Carbon Capture, Utilization, and Storage (CCUS) is a proven and safe method of extracting CO2 from industrial processes for commercial use or permanent storage in impermeable reservoirs and deep underground geological formations. CCUS is now recognized by both the International Energy Agency and the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change as an essential carbon reduction activity for meeting our climate goals.

Why Blockchain?

The immutability of the blockchain ledger provides a permanent decentralized record of transactions and carbon offset certificate data. The transactions are public and auditable, and the system is easily scalable. CarbonKerma transactions are immune to tampering, alteration, or dispute. Our use of blockchain technology in addition to our rigorous onboarding standards solves many of the problems currently plaguing carbon markets: lax standards, poor accounting, credits of questionable impact, and a lack of transparency.

Our Advantages

To reach Paris Climate Accord targets, it is estimated 50 billion tonnes of CO2 will need to be captured and permanently stored by 2050. Unfortunately, current approaches to carbon offsetting and emissions trading are plagued by poor measurability, lax standards for the issuance and trading of credits, lack of consumer participation, and a reliance on inefficient methods of CO2 reduction and removal.

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

Step 1

Measurable and Verifiable Carbon Credits

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

Step 2

Onboarding Capturers/Sinkers

For Capturers/Sinkers to be qualified to bring their tonnage onto KermaExchange, they have to submit their MRV(Monitor, Report and Verify) data under the Token Acquisition tab and state the tonnes have not been previously used for environmental attribution.

Step 3

Verification/Approval of Submission

Once the request is reviewed, verified and approved by CarbonKerma team, submitted Carbon Metric tons are converted to CarbonKerma tokens (CKT) on a per tonne basis and issued to the custody of the concerned capturer.

Step 4

Tokenization of carbon credits

Each CKT is equal to one sequestered carbon metric tonne.

Step 5

LIST and SELL on KermaExchange

Capturers can list their CKTs on KermaExchange for any desired amount at their preferred price.

Step 6

Emitters Can Purchase Directly from KermaExchange

Emitters can simply purchase the amount of tonnage they desire to offset in CKTs on KermaExchange.

Step 7

Retiring CKT Generates an Offset Certificate

Holders can choose to retire any amount of tokens they hold to offset their emissions by simply retiring the equivalent CKTs and receiving an offset certificate under the Offset Carbon tab. This will permanently create a record and remove 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.
