Enhanced Insights with Country Profiles, Methodology Profiles, and Pricing Data.
The end-to end carbon data
platform for the 'net' in your net zero goals.
Sylvera’s Country Profiles assess the 4 major risks (delivery, utility, reputational, and cost) associated with a carbon project’s host country that carbon credit buyers and investors face, and score them on a scale from 1 (low risk) to 10 (high risk). Each risk is defined by several risk factors, including drivers such as carbon ownership rights, trading and use regulation, and LOAs/CAs experience.
Country Profiles are updated quarterly after the quarter has concluded. In the case of an event that materially affects a country's risk scores, we will endeavor to provide an update outside of this cycle. For example, if a country introduces a new carbon regulation that affects buyers’ and investors’ opportunities, we will aim to reflect this information promptly. This ensures users have access to the most current data for informed decision-making.
By offering insights into country-specific risks, Country Profiles enable users to assess and compare potential risks projects may face in different countries. This helps in identifying regions that align with the user’s risk tolerance and net-zero strategies, allowing them to avoid high-risk areas that could compromise project success or compliance. As Sylvera monitors country developments, users can be sure their risk strategy is up to date.
