Expertise is key to solving the tricky issues of the carbon market. Carbon Project Solutions' job is to provide the "carbon logic" needed to chart a path, be it through proofing a project, plotting strategy or steering your offset project through a tricky Validation. We've been in the carbon market for some time now, and can help your organization develop or source pretty much any solutions you may be seeking.

1. Carbon Offset Documentation - Turning your action into offset.

Without Validation and Verification, an offset project cannot create a credible offset. Carbon Project Solutions specializes in turning top quality projects into Verified offsets. We provide a modular "Carbon Offset Documentation" service that allows you to focus on your company's strengths, secure in the knowledge that you have an experienced team writing your Methodologies and Project Design Documents. Our team’s extensive experience with standards development and the implementation of “first of” projects over the last six years puts your project on the path to success.

We can currently build your project to the following major greenhouse gas standards:

Carbon Project Solutions helps you determine what international standard maximizes the value of your project.
In addition to the currently available standards, we maintain up-to-date expertise on the development of a number of federal and provincial carbon markets including:

* The Western Climate Initiative;
* Future Canadian offset system outlined by the “Turning the Corner” document & subsequent guidance; and
* The British Columbia Pacific Carbon Trust & pre-WCI protocols plus BC provincial standards & guidance.

Regulations and opportunities in the carbon market are in constant flux. Carbon Project Solutions’ practical market expertise puts you on the best path to minimize risk and maximize the return of your carbon project.

2. Project Development - Keeping CO2 out the air is the name of the game.

CPS designs, and manages the development of projects that get greenhouse gasses out of the atmosphere. By building these projects to the requirements of an international standard and quantifying their benefit in terms of tonnes of CO2, they become part of the Carbon Market system, driving action to stop climate change.

3. Carbon Management - Size up your footprint, make it smaller.

The reasons to understand one’s organizational carbon footprint, and imperative to reduce it grow every day. Carbon Project Solutions will compile your carbon emissions inventory, design an itemized reductions plan and source appropriate offsets as needed.
