The Africa Carbon Market Inc.

What we do The Africa Carbon Market Inc. is a private sector platform to trade emissions and encourage local green development and promotion practices and technologies for zero-carbon economic development. We employ technology to innovatively engage economic actors in Africa, on business framework to achieving carbon neutrality. The process of aggregating reductions by business, industry, and sector basis encourages clean and renewable business strategies and scales low-carbon investments in light of the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change.
The strategy of the Exchange is to enable trading on monitored, measured and certified emission reductions by companies, projects, practices, products, and events. This will also enable increased growth of low-carbon economic development and businesses in Nigeria, while particularly scaling adaptation and deepening adoption of carbon-neutral pathways.
The greater objective is to raise finance for green-focused projects to enhance knowledge in the Voluntary Carbon Market (VCM) to generate transactions for value chain participants - project developers, carbon auditors, brokers, traders, verifiers, and government. It will also attract private and multilateral development project funds as climate finance. This could come as Climate Funds, Green bonds, and private investments with huge portfolio syndicate funds or insurance premium rebates for low-carbon or green projects.
The Exchange will excite public and private sector participation in greening Nigerian development and incentivize the process. It will partner United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change, third-party verifiers and relevant government regulators, project promoters, businesses, and civil society groups in this development activities. It invites brokerages, carbon trading intermediaries, carbon-neutral activities, and projects. It will host carbon and climate change development dialogues, policy engagements, capacity building, and awareness events or conferences nationally and internationally.
