Carbon Credits and Projects: ISO 14064-2 and Article 6

A half day to understand where a carbon credit comes from and what it allows you to claim. Project quantification under ISO 14064-2:2019, baseline scenario, monitoring and verification, role of Article 6 of the Paris Agreement and of host-country authorisation, state of the Moroccan framework: each notion helps you judge a project on your site or an offer of credits made to you.

Objectives

  1. Explain the life cycle of a carbon credit, from project design to cancellation of the unit
  2. Describe what ISO 14064-2:2019 requires: baseline scenario, sources and sinks, quantification, monitoring, reporting
  3. Distinguish the 6.2, 6.4 and 6.8 components of the Paris Agreement, host-country authorisation and the corresponding adjustment
  4. Assess whether a project on your site can generate credits, and what remains to be checked in the Moroccan framework
  5. Identify uses of credits that expose you to a greenwashing accusation

Programme

Half day

  • Carbon credit, offsetting, contribution: vocabulary, and the place of credits after emission reductions
  • ISO 14064-2:2019: baseline scenario, conservative quantification, monitoring plan, validation and verification under ISO 14064-3; requirements specific to credit programmes
  • Article 6 of the Paris Agreement: cooperative approaches, crediting mechanism, authorisation and corresponding adjustment; where the Moroccan framework stands
  • Exercise: pre-assessment grid for a project on your site (biogas, solar, energy efficiency) or a credit offer received
  • Permitted and prohibited claims, knowledge test

Teaching methods

  • Commented reading of a project description and a monitoring report
  • Pre-assessment grid applied to a project on your site
  • Analysis of a commercial credit offer: programme, vintage, authorisation, registry

Frequently asked questions

Can a Moroccan company sell carbon credits?

On the voluntary market, a project registered with a recognised programme can generate credits. For units authorised under Article 6, a Moroccan authorisation decision is needed, and the national framework had not yet been published at the time of writing. The course reviews the position on the day of the session.

Does buying credits allow us to say our product is carbon neutral?

Not to consumers in the European Union: since Directive (EU) 2024/825 applies, a neutrality claim based on offsetting is prohibited there in all circumstances. You may make known that you finance a project, without drawing any conclusion about the product.

What is the difference from the verification of a GHG inventory?

This half day covers projects that reduce or remove emissions and the credits they generate. The course "Verification of a GHG Inventory: ISO 14064-3, ISO 14065 and ISO 14066" covers the organisation's inventory and its verification.
