Analysis

The Lyme Logan IFM project demonstrates solid core carbon accounting with a VVB-verified investment test, a 19.24% buffer pool, no reported reversals, and a conservative 20% leakage deduction. However, safeguards documentation is weak (no FPIC, no grievance mechanism, and a regression in safeguards reporting between the 2021 and 2023 verification reports), the baseline is project-specific without a stated reassessment date, and several contradictions across monitoring and verification reports introduce data-reliability concerns.

Eligibility & market

What can you claim with this credit?

Four checks buyers ask about, from the registry and the Integrity Council (ICVCM).

  • Airlines (CORSIA)

    No CORSIA label on the registry

    Not usable for airlines' CORSIA obligations.

    Source: registry label

  • Integrity label (ICVCM CCP)

    No ICVCM information

    No CCP label and no ICVCM decision found for this project's methodology.

  • Removal or reduction

    Emission reduction or avoidance

    Prevents or reduces emissions — fits contribution claims, not SBTi neutralisation.

    Source: project sector

  • Paris Agreement (Article 6)

    No Article 6 authorization

    No corresponding adjustment: the host country can also count this reduction towards its own target.

    Source: registry label

Information only, from public sources. Claim rules (CORSIA, SBTi, EU rules on green claims) change: check them before making a public claim. Since 27 September 2026, EU consumer rules do not allow “climate neutral” product claims based on offsets.
