Analysis

The Shannondale Tree Farm project has structural integrity elements in place (20.9% buffer pool, 20% quantified leakage deduction, combined additionality test), but a verified ERR of −10,873 tCO₂e during the 2016–2017 monitoring period signals a net carbon loss that fundamentally undermines the credit claim. A reversal event was reported in the 2016 monitoring report, and multiple contradictions across documents (buffer pool percentage, ERR figures, safeguards) combined with low extraction confidence erode confidence in the data. Safeguards documentation is essentially absent.

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.
