Your commitment, your project,
your climate impact.
Increasing regulation, calls for transparency, rising carbon credit prices – investing in a long-term project at its early stages can be the answer to many questions that may have kept your company from a deeper involvement with voluntary climate action. By developing your own project, you'll have full ownership of the development process.
But starting from scratch can be difficult. That’s why you need an experienced partner with the climate and emissions know-how to develop a project with impact.
As one of the leading solutions providers in the voluntary carbon market and with 20+ years of experience, First Climate guides you through all relevant steps of the project development process.

Stage 1: Identifying your project opportunity
In the first stage, we’ll discuss your company’s needs and expectations and where a climate project would best fit into your climate strategy. First Climate will present a list of suitable project opportunities and together we’ll identify the best options.
Once we’ve discussed a possible project, First Climate will present initial opportunities outlining estimates on key-parameters like projected investment requirements, timelines and a possible project scope.
​
Ongoing support for your climate protection project
After completion of phase 3, project development is complete - your project generates the desired added value: quantifiable benefits in terms of the UN Sustainable Development Goals as well as certified emission reduction or carbon sink certificates.
Of course, First Climate will gladly support you in the marketing of the generated carbon credits as well as in the associated retirement as a measure within the framework of your corporate climate strategy.

5
reasons for your company to develop your own climate project.
1. Contribute to climate change mitigation:
Developing your own project creates direct climate impact and promotes sustainable development.
4. Supply Chain Resilience:
Climate change is likely to negatively affect many supply chains. If you implement a project along your company’s supply chain, it could help to make it more resilient to the effects of climate change.
2. Enhance reputation and brand value:
A long-term investment demonstrates a higher level of commitment to climate action and taking responsibility for emissions and carbon footprint.
3. Cost savings:
While developing a project comes with initial upfront investment costs, the long-term savings and ROI is a major economic benefit.
5. Keep full ownership:
By developing your own project gives you full transparency of all relevant processes and enables you to make all relevant decisions.
