"Patch is a trusted leader in the climate tech industry, and we are proud to be jointly driving the decarbonization movement and helping enterprises reach their sustainability goals."
Companies are increasingly committing to reducing their greenhouse gas emissions to combat climate change, but many struggle to fully eliminate or even significantly decrease their emissions. To offset their remaining emissions, many organizations turn to carbon credits, which are earned for reducing or removing carbon dioxide from the atmosphere. The Taskforce on Scaling Voluntary Carbon Markets estimates that demand for carbon credits could increase significantly in the coming decades, with a potential market worth of $50 billion by 2030 and up to $100 billion by 2050. The voluntary carbon market also directs private financing to climate action projects and supports investment in emerging climate technologies.
Shiftcarbon provides an innovative platform for carbon accounting, offsets, and MRV (Measurement, Reporting and Verification) automation. Businesses can use Shiftcarbon Measure to view a complete picture of their carbon emissions, without the need to hire external consultants or use manual calculations. Shiftcarbon Offset provides enterprises with powerful APIs that allow customers to embed carbon offsets into their business. Find more details on www.shiftcarbon.io.
