How we develop carbon projects

Successful carbon project development takes more than good intentions, it requires scientific precision, field expertise, and the ability to navigate complex regulatory and operational landscapes.

At Ostrom Climate, we combine these strengths to deliver credible, transparent projects with lasting climate impact.

From concept to measurable climate action

Our process is built on disciplined execution, ensuring each initiative delivers auditable, market-ready climate outcomes that align with leading global standards.

Developing projects with proven technical expertise and on-the-ground experience.

Identifying and managing risks to safeguard project integrity from the outset.

Managing subsequent verifications, ongoing project oversight and market delivery throughout the project lifecycle.

The path from concept to credit issuance

Scientific Foundation

Each project begins with robust data, proven methodologies, and accurate emissions quantification to ensure credible, lasting climate outcomes.

Project Implementation

We manage complex on-the-ground activities with precision, ensuring effective monitoring and strong community safeguards.

Credit Issuance

We guide projects through validation and verification and stay engaged post-issuance to maintain compliance and credit integrity across voluntary and compliance markets.
