Here are some key takeaways

  • Carbon ratings are a necessary tool to drive market confidence; at the same time, assessing project execution and delivery risk is equally critical to provide assurance that promised credits will be delivered.

  • Project execution risk varies significantly across project types, with Nature-Based Solutions projects clustering at the lower end of the risk spectrum and Engineered Carbon Removals projects displaying a more dispersed risk profile, reflecting the greater diversity and varying maturity of underlying technologies.

  • Execution risk decreases as projects mature: on average, each notch on the BeZero project execution risk scale corresponds to approximately 1.1 years' difference in implementation timeline.
