Sylvera & BlueLayer Launch World’s First Live Carbon Project and Inventory Data Set

Sylvera & BlueLayer launch world’s first live carbon project and inventory data set, bridging the gap between supply and demand, mobilising much needed financing towards project developers

Sylvera and BlueLayer are proud to announce a ground-breaking partnership designed to transform carbon markets by driving greater transparency, efficiency, and accessibility.

Key Highlights:

• Catalysing Investment: This partnership will drive billions of dollars worth of investment towards carbon projects by enabling buyers to discover, request, and exchange data with project developers—digitally and fully securely. To date, 80+ projects have been introduced to buyers, catering to a total demand of 4 million credits.
• Enhancing Transparency & Efficiency: BlueLayer and Sylvera are working together to streamline the exchange of inventory, price, and project data between project developers and buyers.
• Expanding Market Access: By onboarding their data on BlueLayer, project developers can choose to gain access to leading buyers in the market that are using the Sylvera Connect to Supply solution, while buyers receive live data from a vast network of 200+ project developers across nature and engineering based activities.

‍

Beyond these core benefits, this industry-first partnership between two global market leaders creates a seamless bridge between supply and demand. Using BlueLayer’s state-of-the-art API, the data exchange connects end-to-end carbon data that is both reliable and actionable. Project developers leverage BlueLayer’s platform, while buyers are onboarded via Sylvera, to enable a smooth engagement and to ensure project developers maintain full control over their data—deciding what, when, and with whom they share private information.

The carbon market as it stands is fragmented and inefficient. Buyers face difficulties navigating a maze of intermediaries to find carbon credits that match their requirements. Project developers in turn encounter challenges when it comes to responding to RFPs quickly and accurately, and managing the extended back and forth with intermediaries and buyers on project data, pricing, inventory availability, and contract terms. This slow sales process impedes buyers to meet their net zero goals and project developers to secure financing and scale their projects.

For Project Developers: Unlocking revenue opportunities while maintaining control

Project developers onboarded to BlueLayer now have unparalleled access to a high-quality network of buyers, accelerating project visibility and boosting credit sales. Key benefits include:

• Increased Visibility & Accessibility: Exposure to a deep, well informed, and ready-to-transact buyer network, boosting credit sales for both pipeline and issuing projects.
• Efficiency in Data Exchange & RFPs: Standardised templates and automations simplify responses to buyer requests, accelerating transactions and reducing manual effort.
• Streamline Data Management: Managing and overseeing entire carbon operations in one platform, with the opportunity to seamlessly share project data to streamline their due diligence or ratings process via Sylvera.
• Full Data Control: Maintain full control over inventory, pricing, and project data, by only sharing a standardised set of project information; project developers actively select which requests to respond to, retaining full control over their private data.

‍

For Buyers: Faster and better informed decision-making

Buyers gain access to live data from 200+ project developers across 15+ project types. Key benefits include:

• Real-Time Project Data: Access to live inventory, pricing, and project details powered by BlueLayer enables better decision-making and more efficient procurement.
• Expanded Project Access: Buyers can source credits from both pre-issuance and issuing projects, ensuring access to a broader array of investment opportunities.
• Trusted Due Diligence: Identify and mitigate risks with trusted carbon ratings, and ongoing monitoring capabilities to get the answer right first time, every time with accurate and up-to-date data.

‍

Beyond these benefits, the partnership has the potential to catalyse over $2 billion in capital toward project developers. To date, 80+ projects have been introduced to buyers, catering to a total demand of 4 million credits. More than 200 leading project developers are now part of this ecosystem, increasing market liquidity and accessibility, further driving progress in the global carbon markets.

Allister Furey, Co-founder and CEO, Sylvera:

“A successful global carbon market demands high-quality data to ensure that every credit traded reflects a real, measurable reduction in emissions. Partnering with Bluelayer enables us to remove barriers, simplify processes, and facilitate stronger connections between buyers and developers - on the foundation of end-to-end carbon data. It’s another big step in driving meaningful climate action and real progress as we continue to mature these markets.”

‍

Shona Crawford-Smith, Head of Product Data and Partnerships

“Close collaboration with project developers is essential in incentivising real climate action. At Sylvera, we empower developers by providing assessments that enhance the transparency and credibility of their projects in the carbon market. It then means a vast network of trusting buyers and investors, confident in their contributions to climate, nature, and social impacts. We are dedicated to supporting their efforts in ensuring that high-quality projects gain visibility while unlocking early-stage financing opportunities. This partnership is another step towards enabling a more seamless, transparent market that benefits all parties.”

‍

Alexander Argyros, Co-founder and CEO, BlueLayer:

"This partnership is a turning point for scaling the carbon markets, providing much-needed digital infrastructure for both suppliers and buyers. We're giving project developers the tools, visibility and access to funding they need to boost revenue opportunities and scale their business; while providing buyers with the data transparency they require to identify high-quality projects and meet their sustainability goals. Together, we’re creating a more efficient, high-performing, and connected market."

‍

Vivian Bertseka, Co-founder and COO, BlueLayer:

“The inefficiency and lack of transparency in the RFP and sales process has hindered project developers’ opportunity to secure financing, sell credits and scale projects. BlueLayer’s data partnership with Sylvera marks a new era for the carbon markets as we drive towards greater technology inoperability, connecting up the market so that high-quality project developers can supply buyers with the credits they need to reach their net zero goals.”
