Afforestation, Reforestation and Improved Forest Management

About AR-IFM
Forests are essential for combating climate change, supporting biodiversity, and sustaining livelihoods. At Credynova, we deliver comprehensive solutions for afforestation, reforestation, and improved forest management (AR-IFM) projects. These initiatives are designed to restore degraded ecosystems, enhance carbon sequestration, and generate high-quality carbon credits while adhering to global standards.
Our approach integrates cutting-edge methodologies, compliance with international protocols, and alignment with sustainability reporting standards, ensuring that each project delivers measurable environmental, social, and economic benefits.
Our Comprehensive Services
- Full-Cycle Management: From feasibility studies to project implementation and monitoring, we deliver tailored solutions for forest restoration.
- Compliance with Standards: Projects adhere to global frameworks like the Greenhouse Gas (GHG) Protocol, ISO 14064, and Article 6 of the Paris Agreement.
- Sustainability Integration: Align your projects with frameworks like SBTi (Science-Based Targets Initiative),NDCs(Nationally Determined Contributions) GRI (Global Reporting Initiative), and CSRD (Corporate Sustainability Reporting Directive).
- Environmental Impact Assessment: Evaluate carbon sequestration potential and ecosystem benefits using methodologies such as ISO 14040 and ISO 14044.
- Economic Feasibility Studies: Conduct TEA to assess cost-effectiveness and long-term project viability.
- Alignment with Carbon Standards: Projects are designed to meet standards set by VERRA, Gold Standard, International Carbon Registry (ICR), and Climate Action Reserve (CAR) and many.
- Robust MRV Frameworks: Ensure data accuracy and transparency by complying with standards like ISO 14064-3, IPCC Guidelines, and the GHG Protocol.
- Carbon Accounting Principles: Apply completeness, consistency, accuracy, transparency, and relevance (CCATR) principles to maintain reporting integrity.
- Third-Party Verification: Collaborate with accredited validators to certify carbon credit eligibility.
Project Methodologies for AR-IFM
Methodology Development and Validation
- Tailored Methodologies: Develop project-specific methodologies that meet the requirements of VERRA, Gold Standard, and Climate Action Reserve.
- Third-Party Validation: Work with accredited bodies to validate and certify projects for carbon credit issuance.
NDC Standards Integration
- Alignment with Nationally Determined Contributions (NDCs):
Support country-specific climate action goals under the Paris Agreement.
Ensure that projects contribute directly to meeting climate targets set by governments.
Facilitate collaboration with regulatory bodies to integrate AR-IFM projects into national GHG reduction strategies.
Key Methodology Principles
- Baseline Determination: Establish pre-project land-use conditions.
- Leakage Assessment: Prevent displacement of emissions to other areas.
- Additionality Testing: Ensure projects deliver beyond business-as-usual scenarios.
- Continuous Monitoring: Use advanced tools such as satellite imaging and field sampling.
Carbon and Nutrient Credits Eligibility
- Carbon Credits: Generate high-quality credits through afforestation and improved forest management practices.
- Nutrient Credits: Maximize value by incorporating nutrient management techniques that reduce nitrogen and phosphorus runoff.
- Market Access: Facilitate trading in global markets, including VERRA, Gold Standard, ICR, EU ETS, Climate Action Reserve and many.
Alignment with Global Standards
and Frameworks
- GHG Protocol: A globally recognized framework for quantifying and managing emissions.
- IPCC Guidelines: Best practices for accounting carbon sequestration in land-use projects.
- ISO Standards: Includes ISO 14064 (GHG quantification and verification), ISO 14067 (carbon footprint), and ISO 14040/14044 (LCA).
- SBTi (Science-Based Targets Initiative): Supports net-zero goal setting.
- TCFD (Task Force on Climate-Related Financial Disclosures): Improves transparency in climate risk and opportunity disclosures.
- CSRD (Corporate Sustainability Reporting Directive): Ensures compliance with EU sustainability reporting standards.
- GRI, SASB, and CDP: Facilitate comprehensive ESG impact reporting and transparency.
- NDC Alignment: Ensure that all AR-IFM projects contribute to national GHG reduction targets.
- RE100: Corporate commitment to renewable energy.
- PACT (Partnership for Carbon Transparency): Ensures decarbonization transparency in value chains.
- PCAF (Partnership for Carbon Accounting Financials): Framework for financial sector carbon accounting.
- VERRA (Verified Carbon Standard): Certification for credible carbon offset projects.
- Gold Standard: Ensures projects provide environmental and community co-benefits.
- Climate Action Reserve (CAR): Focused on credible offset generation.
