Environmental Assets
For carbon reduction projects, I-REC certificates and carbon credits, we manage the process from project development to purchase and sale.
We Run Emission Reduction Processes from Start to Finish
Environmental assets cover the carbon credits that arise from emission reduction projects and the I-REC certificates that document renewable electricity generation. They allow you to manage your emissions and turn a reduction or renewable energy project you already have into a new source of value.
Service Scope
I-REC
I-REC is an international certificate system that documents that your electricity consumption is met from renewable sources. We plan certificate purchases according to the needs of your reporting and determine how the certificates will be reflected in your Scope 2 reporting on a market basis. If you have a renewable generation facility, we also carry out the facility registration and certificate issuance process.
YEK-G
YEK-G is the national certificate system in Türkiye that documents the guarantee of origin of electricity generated from renewable sources. We compare it with I-REC in terms of reporting and customer requirements, and together determine which one, or which combination, suits you.
Carbon Credits
We assess the quality of carbon credits supplied for your emissions that cannot be reduced. Credits should be considered in addition to reduction, not in place of it. In addition, we identify projects in your facilities or activities that could generate carbon credits (such as energy efficiency, renewable energy and waste management), select the standard that suits the project type and calculate additionality and emission reductions.
Environmental Asset Development Process
Preliminary assessment
We assess the potential of your project or energy use to generate credits or certificates.
Standard selection
We select the standard and methodology that suit the project type and the target buyer.
Project documentation
We prepare the project design document, the monitoring plan and the necessary evidence.
Certification
We coordinate the independent verification process and follow registration and certificate issuance.
Reporting
We support the purchase and sale of credits and certificates and reflect them in your inventory and reports.
A Credible Climate Claim
Credits and certificates carry meaning alongside reduction, not in place of it. A properly built environmental asset strategy complements reduction. It lets you manage emissions, document your renewable energy use and turn the projects you hold into value.
- Emission reduction opportunity
- Certified renewable energy
- Project value
- A climate claim that withstands scrutiny
Frequently Asked Questions
A carbon credit is a certificate that represents a specific greenhouse gas reduction, avoidance or removal from the atmosphere, and is generally expressed as one metric tonne of CO₂e. It can be generated by projects such as renewable energy, energy efficiency, afforestation or carbon removal, and, once verified under specific standards, can be traded in carbon markets.
I-REC is an international energy attribute certificate system that documents the source and environmental attributes of electricity generated from renewable sources. I-REC certificates make it possible to document, in a traceable way, that the electricity used was generated at a specific renewable energy facility, and to link electricity consumption to renewable energy sources. We assess your organisation’s electricity consumption and reporting needs, determine whether I-REC is suitable, and manage the process.
No. You are expected to reduce your own emissions first; carbon credits are used for emissions that cannot be reduced and for additional climate contribution. Under science-based target frameworks, too, credits are not counted in place of the reduction target.
