Carbon offsetting is becoming increasingly common in more and more companies. This now also applies to construction and real estate companies.

Carbon offsetting is becoming increasingly common in more and more companies. This now also applies to construction and real estate companies.

A Net Zero standard has been introduced for companies in the construction and real estate sectors that want to get started with carbon reduction and carbon offsetting. The standard offers companies in need of concrete guidance various options for working toward net-zero emissions. And carbon credits also play a role in this.

The Net Zero standard prioritizes avoiding and reducing emissions as much as possible within the company’s own supply chain. For the unavoidable remaining emissions, the standard then outlines options for offsetting. Options mentioned include material-bound carbon storage, the purchase of renewable energy, and/or the use of high-quality carbon credits.

Reliable, high-quality carbon credits: that is exactly what ecommit stands for. We screen projects and purchase carbon credits only from projects that meet our more than four hundred criteria.
