In development

Listed in the registry's pipeline: the project, or its new phase, has not been independently validated or registered yet. Whether credits were issued in the past is shown by the vintages below.

It has issued no carbon credits: any offer to sell its credits is a forward commitment on possible future issuance. There is no registry-backed credit to buy or retire today.

Document-based rating

4.0/10

Low rating (3.5 to 4.9)

Evidence coverage: medium

How solid the credit is, as far as the registry's public documents show. Additionality and quantification start from a public grade; permanence starts at 5.0, the neutral point, where none applies, and claim safety always does.

Methodology v3 · documents read on 2 Nov 2026

Starting point

  • Additionality: CCQI's score for this type of project
  • Quantification: CCQI's score for this type of project
  • Claim safety: neutral (5.0) — no public grade of this type of project applies

No rule raised or lowered the number: it is the starting point.

Not counted in the number

  • The fNRB value: the documents read do not state it
  • The vintage: the registry records we hold show no issuance
  • The oldest vintage still on sale, the content of the safeguards and the verifier's quality: not among the facts read

Eligibility & market

What can you claim with this credit?

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

  • Airlines (CORSIA)

    Not checked yet

    This registry publishes CORSIA labels, but CarbonMeld has not read this project's credit records yet: we cannot say whether its credits carry one. Check on the registry.

  • 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

    Covers: the project type, not a label on individual credits

  • Paris Agreement (Article 6)

    Not published

    This registry does not publish Article 6 authorizations.

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.
