Sylvera advises corporates to shift carbon credit procurement earlier

Sylvera's 2027 Buyer's Guide advises corporate carbon credit buyers to move procurement earlier in the year and secure multi-year agreements, rather than finalising purchases in Q4. This shift is driven by increasing demand for high-quality credits from compliance markets like CORSIA and Article 6, alongside the SBTi Corporate Net-Zero Standard V2, effective 31 January 2027, which recognises carbon credits in net-zero strategies. The guide highlights significant price variations by project type and origin, with average Q3 2026 prices ranging from $6–$8 for REDD+ and cookstoves, to $155–$179 for biochar. Sylvera suggests modelling costs under different demand scenarios for years 1, 3, and 5 to optimise purchasing decisions and avoid overpaying.
