Carbon Markets 2.0: Blockchain — only if governance is real
Carbon markets cannot scale without trust. Verification delays, double counting, and fragmented registries continue to undermine credibility and slow progress.
Blockchain offers a solution. With a tamper-proof digital ledger, MRV data can be verified in real time, registries can interoperate seamlessly, and ownership is transparent with credits retired automatically.
At Strategy&Ops, we design carbon credit systems that prevent double counting, ensure transparency, and strengthen governance—building the trust needed for long-term market credibility.
