Fiona Perera, Manager, Methodology Development & Innovations at Gold Standard will be speaking on the session Beyond Offsets: Building a Credible Voluntary Carbon ‘Removal’ Market
In this sessions panellists will discuss topics such as:
- Removals, especially high-integrity credits, are gaining terrain in the VCM. What are key factors and criteria leading to this growth?
- What is the status of the current revised SBTi’s Corporate Net-Zero Standard and how does this relate to other market standards?
- How aligned are EU regulations (CRCF, CBAM etc) with the VCM and corporate targets? Will VCM converge with compliance schemes?
- Insurance has become key in making carbon credits a more powerful and legitimate tool. What other benefits do insurance solutions bring to strengthen the voluntary market?
- Is Article 6 of the Paris Agreement, providing clearer guidelines for credit use and enhancing market credibility in the VCM?
