“High fidelity compliance carbon credits could create arbitrage opportunities in the sector. These high-fidelity credits are attractive since they are usually associated with clear compliance protocols and government directives,” said Lionel Kambeitz, Executive Chairman of Delta CleanTech. “Delta CleanTech’s technologies are a well positioned source of origination and aggregation for these compliance carbon credits.”
The interviews took place at the conclusion of COP26, the UN climate change conference that was recently held in the UK. As the world’s largest corporations are increasingly turning to financial products to offset their environmental footprint, voluntary carbon credits (carbon offset credits) are a powerful driver in the industry. As noted by Kitco, the carbon offset market is forecasted to increase to over $1 Billion in 2021, and according to McKinsey Consulting, this market could grow 100-fold by 2050.
“Voluntary carbon offset origination must create an accountable, quantifiable, permanent and an independently verified reduction in GHG emissions that are tangible. Many carbon offset projects use third-party verified standards to approve their carbon credits and follow rules and procedures set out by independent third-party organizations, in particular Verified Carbon Standard and the Gold Standard,” added Kambeitz. “Together, these audit and accredit about 70% of the offsets in today’s voluntary market. The price of these carbon offset credits may vary widely depending on the jurisdictional oversight, third party audit and verification integrity and fidelity protocols.”
Delta CleanTech has shown leadership in the compliance and voluntary carbon offset market through its extensive origination and aggregation experience in CO2 capture, landfill and oilfield methane destruction and zero tillage agricultural carbon credits. The opportunity for double arbitrage exists because there is the general supply-demand pull wherein carbon credits may go up in value as well as lower fidelity voluntary carbon offset credits may go up in value as their origination protocols and fidelity is validated.
