What is this Rating?

Rating agencies are independent, third-party organizations that use a combination of technical, policy, and regulatory expertise to evaluate the quality of a carbon project. Their ratings (or grades) indicate their level of confidence that a particular project meets high standards for durability, additionality, and verifiability, among other important project attributes and risks. Overall, a high rating indicates that the project is very likely to achieve its carbon reductions.
