Each Sylvera rating reflects a project’s real-world impact at a specific point in time. Our team monitors each project for significant changes—like design adjustments or new field data—that might impact its credibility or performance. When a meaningful change is detected, we update the rating, ensuring it accurately reflects the latest developments.
Sylvera uses satellite imagery to track and validate project changes over time. This data supports our ratings by offering visual evidence of project impact. The “Satellite Data Date” marks the latest data used in assessing a project’s carbon contribution, providing enhanced accuracy and alignment with project vintages.
Sylvera updates project ratings as new data becomes available or after a thorough review. If an update is likely, the project is marked “On Watch,” signaling potential rating changes. You’ll receive notifications of any status changes, ensuring you’re always informed about your portfolio’s latest performance metrics.
Sylvera Carbon Credit Ratings Explained.
Common questions about Project Monitoring.
Sylvera’s “Rating Liveness” refers to our commitment to keeping project ratings as current and reflective of the latest data as possible. This means ratings are actively monitored and updated based on new information, such as significant events or changes in project design, to ensure you receive the most accurate insights.
Vintage dates relate to when a project’s emissions avoidance or carbon removal took place. While Sylvera rates the project as a whole, rather than each vintage, we account for variations in quality over different time periods. Our ratings reflect an assessment of the entire span of vintage dates, providing a balanced view of the project’s quality across all years.
The “As Of” date on a Sylvera rating indicates the most recent time we evaluated or updated the rating. It reflects the latest available data, ensuring the rating accounts for all relevant information up to that point. Sylvera monitors projects for significant events and will update the rating when material changes occur that may affect the project’s credibility.
A project marked “On Watch” means that Sylvera has identified potential changes in the project that may affect its rating. During this time, further analysis is conducted to determine if a rating adjustment is necessary. Both positive and negative changes may occur, and the “On Watch” status helps reduce market uncertainty by indicating when updates are under review.
Sylvera updates ratings whenever significant new information or events arise, such as policy changes, project design modifications, or external alerts (e.g., deforestation incidents). All proposed rating changes undergo thorough review and approval to maintain quality and transparency. Customers are notified whenever a project’s rating status changes or is updated.
Sylvera sends notifications to customers for any updates, including when a project is placed “On Watch” or receives an updated rating. Notifications are currently batched to minimize disruptions, but we’re working on providing customized notification settings so you can receive timely updates specific to your interests.
