Working to make carbon impact verification

We are a carbon impact verification organization developing digital verification solutions to bring credibility to climate action. In a context where uncertainty and concerns around greenwashing is high, our work ensures impact are real, realized and in line with global standards.   


A next-generation verifier

Verifiers are the credibility layer necessary to avoid greenwashing but are one of the few actors left untouched by the digital revolution. We are shooting for the moon when it comes to setting ambitious climate targets yet still rely on archaic tools to make sure we are delivering on them.

At SustainCERT, we are developing the world’s first software platform to enable digital verification of impact claims across carbon markets  and value chains. We strive for both speed and quality because we believe creating a race to the top, where those who take action can be recognized and incentivized to aim higher, is the only way to truly meet our collective climate objectives.  

Value for businesses, people and planet

Our work follows best practice as defined by the ISEAL Code of Good Practice and aligns with internationally recognized standards such as the Greenhouse Gas Protocol and Gold Standard for the Global Goals to ensure carbon projects or value chain interventions deliver on their promises and avoid greenwashing.

As an official certification body for Gold Standard we contributed to:

1200+
Projects certified
100+million
Tons of CO2e issued
14billion
in shared value for climate action and sustainable development

SustainCERT is trusted by more than 1000 companies

The ‘climate tech’ gold rush is here – but who’s going to verify its credibility and claims?

We are shooting for the moon when it comes to setting ambitious climate targets and investing in new solutions, yet relying on archaic tools to make sure we are reaching them - that needs to change, argues SustainCERT CEO Marion Verles

3 things to know about our work, where we are headed and why

Getting clarity on what is really delivered on the ground is paramount. Where greenwashing is a problem, we see credible claims as the solution. And where monitoring, reporting and verification (MRV) remains limited, we see a potential for digital technologies.
