A public record you don't need us to read.

Every issuance and every retirement is permanent, queryable and readable without an account. A registry you need permission to search isn't public.

Anatomy of a record

What travels with every credit

More than a certificate number and a tonnage. The whole chain, so an auditor can rebuild the claim from scratch without contacting us.

Credit ID and batch
Unique, immutable, tied to one measured production run
Identity
Raw instrument readings
Timestamped, with calibration history for the unit that produced them
Evidence
Methodology version
The exact revision in force at issuance, diffable against later versions
Method
Verifier attestation
Signed, naming the firm and the assignment date
Audit
Site coordinates
Where the removal physically happened
Location
Retirement chain
Who retired it, when, and against which claim
Final state
Double-counting

One tonne, one claim, once.

A tonne measured on our instruments cannot be issued through another registry. That sits in the contract with every developer, not in a policy we hope people follow.

Retirement is irreversible and public, so reselling a retired credit shows up to anyone reading the record. We also flag where a host country is counting the removal toward its own NDC, because that changes what you are allowed to claim.
