What are Carbon Offsets

A carbon offsets is a tradable certificate representing the right to emit one ton of carbon dioxide or the equivalent amount of a different greenhouse gas.

There are two types of carbon offsets:

  • Voluntary emissions reduction (VER): used in voluntary markets for credits.
  • Certified emissions reduction (CER): created through a regulatory framework with the purpose of offsetting a project's emissions.

 

Singapore does not have a regulated carbon market so only VERs are applicable in the local context.

Carbon offsets fulfill their purpose when they are retired to offset Scope 1, 2 & 3 emissions.

 

  • The retirement is made permanent by the accredited registry on behalf of the organisation that is offsetting its emissions.
  • Carbon offsets are proof of actions and can be used by any organisation to offset its carbon emissions.
  • Carbon offsets are best used to complement an organisation’s sustainability efforts, to offset unavoidable carbon-emitting activities.
