A Trusted Leader in Regulated and Voluntary Carbon Markets

ACR established the world's first carbon registry in 1996 and has been a global leader ever since. We are a trusted partner operating in both the compliance and voluntary carbon markets.

Our Role

ACR operates in both compliance and voluntary carbon markets. We are a trusted partner for those sourcing carbon credits to help meet regulatory requirements, as well as those seeking high-quality credits for use toward voluntary climate commitments.

We oversee the registration and verification of greenhouse gas (GHG) emission reduction and removals projects following approved carbon accounting methodologies, and we issue serialized credits on a transparent registry system for tracking holdings, as well as for retirement and cancellation. We have been approved to issue credits for entities that need to meet compliance requirements within various regulated carbon markets. We also issue a broad range of high-integrity credits for those operating in the voluntary carbon market, which buyers can be confident represent real, credible and verified emission reductions and removals.
