    What is a biodiversity credit?

    A biodiversity credit is a certification that verifies and quantifies the improvement of biodiversity in a specific area. This improvement must be based on concrete, lasting, and additional evidence compared to what would have occurred in the absence of the specific intervention. A biodiversity credit corresponds to the equivalent of 0.1 hectares (1,000 m²) of full ecological regeneration.

    Biodiversity credits must be measurable through reliable scientific methodologies. This means using specific indicators such as Mean Species Abundance (MSA), to measure the positive impact on biodiversity.

    How to integrate biodiversity credits into your company's environmental strategy

    Biodiversity credits are an opportunity for companies to actively contribute to the conservation and restoration of ecosystems and to align themselves with international regulations and standards.

    CSRD Directive

    The CSRD requires companies to provide detailed information on environmental impacts, including actions to protect biodiversity. The purchase of biodiversity credits can be used as a compensation measure and to demonstrate a concrete commitment to protecting ecosystems, thus aligning with the requirements of transparency and environmental responsibility.

    TNFD Framework

    The TNFD framework provides guidelines for assessing, managing and disclosing the risks and opportunities associated with biodiversity loss. By purchasing biodiversity credits, companies can reduce the risk associated with ecosystem destruction by offsetting the impacts and mitigating the financial risks associated with the loss of natural capital.

    SBTN Framework

    The Science Based Targets for Nature (SBTN) provides companies with guidelines for setting concrete, scientifically sound targets for nature protection. Purchasing biodiversity credits can help companies meet these targets, offset impacts and align with global science-based approaches to biodiversity conservation.

    Why they are importantRequest a demo

    The process of generating Biodiversity Credits

    Biodiversity credits are generated through a process that involves a series of well-defined steps. Each credit, certified and tracked, can be used by companies to offset their impacts and integrated into their biodiversity strategy.

    Each biodiversity credit originates from a certified project. Project developers assess the area, define biodiversity improvement activities and obtain initial third-party validation to ensure scientific soundness.

    Assessment and design

    The implemented project is monitored to ensure that the interventions have a measurable positive impact. An independent body carries out an ex-post evaluation to ensure that the improvements are real and in line with the objectives.

    Implementation and monitoring

    Only after verification are the credits officially generated and certified with a unique code. The verification body ensures process transparency and prevents double counting events.

    Issuing of credits

    Companies use credits to offset their impact on biodiversity, integrate them into their environmental strategy and help achieve regeneration goals.

    Why biodiversity credits are important

    Biodiversity credits enable companies to make a concrete contribution to the conservation of ecosystems and the achievement of global biodiversity goals. They support commitments to the Global Biodiversity Framework (GBF) and the Nature Restoration Law (NRL) and mitigate risks related to biodiversity loss. They also generate a positive impact at the local level through conservation and restoration projects.
