Regreener publishes guide for companies on buying carbon credits responsibly

Regreener has released a guide for companies on how to responsibly purchase carbon credits, aiming to help them avoid common pitfalls such as overpaying or acquiring indefensible credits. The guide outlines a process for defining climate goals, understanding credit quality, and navigating market terminology and standards. It advises companies to set credit volumes based on emissions, choose a mix of avoidance and removal credits, and ensure credits are verified and retired on a public registry. The publication also addresses evolving claim regulations, noting the EU's Empowering Consumers Directive will ban 'carbon neutral' product claims based on offsetting from 27 September 2026.
