What is Pre-Issuance?

Pre-issuance refers to the early stage in a carbon project’s lifecycle, before credits are issued. By investing at this stage, companies secure a supply of high-quality credits aligned with their net-zero goals and an opportunity to lock in high-quality credits at favorable prices.

Why consider Pre-Issuance projects as a part of your carbon credit portfolio?

Investing in pre-issuance projects is a proactive strategy to ensure future access to quality credits. While investing upstream in carbon projects may be new for many companies, it’s a way to gain early access to promising projects with potential cost advantages. By engaging early, companies can bridge the experience gap, making confident, informed decisions that align with their environmental and financial goals.
