Carbon credits put a monetary value on carbon emissions and is often referred to as 'carbon pricing'. This creates a financial stimulus for companies to reduce their carbon footprint.

Certification standard
Carbon credits are verified by independent standards such as Verra (VCS), Gold Standard, or Plan Vivo.
Credits certified by well-respected standards typically cost more due to the rigorous validation and monitoring process that ensures credibility and transparency.

The vintage refers to when the emission reduction or removal actually took place.
Newer vintages often have higher prices due to better data, improved methodologies, and stronger buyer preferences for recent climate impact.

Supply and demand plays a role in shaping carbon credit prices. When demand for high-quality or specific types of credits rises faster than supply, prices increase.
External factors- such as corporate net-zero commitments, regulatory shifts - can also influence buyer behavior.

FAQs about carbon offsetting
Are carbon credits tax-deductible?
In many jurisdictions (including parts of the EU and UK), purchasing carbon credits for business purposes—specifically to meet sustainability targets or CSR commitments—can be treated as a business expense. However, tax laws regarding voluntary carbon markets are evolving rapidly. We advise consulting with our team or a tax professional regarding your specific jurisdiction.
Can my company still claim "Carbon Neutral"?
The terminology is shifting. Under new guidelines (like VCMI and EU Green Claims Directive), companies are advised to move away from claiming "Carbon Neutrality" based solely on offsetting. Instead, the focus is on "Contribution Claims" or "Beyond Value Chain Mitigation," where you fund climate action without necessarily using it to cancel out your own gross emissions in your marketing.
What is the average price of a carbon credit in 2026?
Prices vary drastically based on the project type. While older renewable energy credits can still be found for under €5, high-integrity nature-based solutions typically range between €15 and €30 per ton. Engineered removals like Biochar and DAC command premiums ranging from €100 to over €400 per ton due to their high durability and scarcity.
What defines a "high-quality" carbon credit in 2026?
In 2026, "high quality" is no longer subjective; it is defined by adherence to the ICVCM’s Core Carbon Principles (CCPs). To be considered high-quality, a credit must demonstrate:
Additionality: The project would not have happened without the carbon finance.
Permanence: The CO2 is stored for decades or centuries (low reversal risk).
Co-benefits: measurable positive impacts on local biodiversity and communities (SDGs).
Third-Party Ratings: Verification by independent agencies like Sylvera, BeZero, or Calyx is now a standard requirement for premium pricing.
Why is there a price gap between voluntary and compliance carbon credits?
The price gap—roughly $15 (Voluntary) vs. $90+ (Compliance/EU)—exists because the markets serve different purposes. Compliance markets (like the EU ETS) are legally mandatory with a fixed supply cap that forces companies to buy, driving prices up. The Voluntary Market (VCM) has an uncapped supply of project developers, keeping prices lower. However, as the VCM tightens standards in 2026, we expect this gap to narrow slightly for high-quality removal credits that mimic compliance-grade integrity.
