Analysis

International Paper's combined-cycle gas turbine project in Maine is a straightforward industrial energy-efficiency credit under ACR, verified by URS Corporation. The verification reports confirm that verified emissions reductions are consistently lower than claimed (by roughly 3–8.5%), which is a conservative outcome, but the extracted record lacks any documented additionality test, leakage treatment, or safeguards assessment. The project is functional but the evidentiary record is thin on several core integrity dimensions.

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.
