How much does a carbon credit cost?
Carbon credits via ecommit always come from multiple climate projects, except in the case of customization. The price is a weighted average of those projects. In October 2025, a carbon credit at ecommit costs €20 (excluding VAT). One credit represents one tonne (1,000 kg) of carbon emissions removed or prevented. The price per tonne of carbon offsetting is likely to rise in the future. A carbon credit purchased from ecommit is always registered and comes from a reliable climate project. We neutralize the carbon credit and provide you with all the documents you need for your accounting and reporting.

What determines the cost of a carbon credit?
The cost of a carbon credit depends on the country and the type of project. Projects based in the Netherlands are often more expensive due to higher land and labor costs compared to projects in other countries. Initiatives that remove carbon dioxide from the atmosphere, such as through agriculture or reforestation, are typically less costly than projects that use technology to reduce carbon emissions. Ecommit calculates a single price that takes into account the combined costs of our various projects.

When you purchase carbon credits from ecommit, we register the carbon credits in your company's name. The moment you purchase carbon credits does not have to be the same moment you use them. The act of actually using your carbon credits is called retiring. When you retire your carbon credits (now or in the future), the carbon removal is attributed to your company. Once retired, carbon credits can no longer be used or sold.
