What is Carbon Credit
Carbon credits are permits that allow the holder to emit one ton of carbon or equivalent greenhouse gases. These permits are issued by governments or independent verifying companies and can be traded. Typically, carbon credits are issued to companies or projects that reduce or avoid carbon emissions. Firms that exceed government emissions limits (in places where those exist) or that seek to compensate for their carbon emissions then buy these credits to offset their emissions footprint. The idea behind carbon trading is that it should incentivize lower emissions and provide funding for renewables. 2021 saw record volumes of carbon credits traded on both voluntary and regulatory carbon credit markets. In the voluntary market, annual market value crossed the $1 billion mark for the first time, with an all-time market value hitting $6.7 billion, per data from Ecosystem Marketplace. Despite helping to reduce emissions—to which Africa contributes little—these companies and projects operating in Africa struggle to generate sustainable revenue and are mostly missing in international carbon markets. For context, big firms like Tesla (who receive sell credits from local regulation programs get a not-insignificant proportion of their revenue from selling in compliance carbon markets. In the first quarter of this year, the electric car company made $679 million from carbon credit sales from this activity. And last year, a total of $851 billion worth of carbon credits were traded globally.
