UK Carbon Registry (UKCR) is the first UK based, STEM oriented carbon registry providing services in carbon markets and carbon credit issuance.

We are dedicated to offer the opportunity for private STEM focused companies to issue, hold and trade carbon credits through our platform. STEM projects encompass projects that are heavily oriented towards the implementation of science, technology, engineering and mathematics. These projects may include but are not limited to solar fields, EV charging units, water filtration systems, waste management projects and wind fields.

We ensure to implement the latest and best in class standards to offer the issuance of reliable, high-quality carbon credits. Currently, UKCR imposes project developers, verifying and validation bodies, and auditors to abide by the guidelines set out in the ISO 14064 parts 1 to 3.

ISO 14064 

The ISO 14064 is a series of standards and guidelines developed by the International Organization for Standardization (ISO) that provides a precise framework for businesses:

• Seeking to quantify, monitor and report their greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions
• Seeking to develop Carbon Projects
• Seeking to act as a Verifying or Validating body

The ISO 14064 standard consists of three parts:

ISO 14064-1: Specifies the principles and requirements at an organization level for quantifying and reporting of greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions and removals. It includes requirements for the design, development, management, reporting and verification of an organization's GHG inventory.

ISO 14064-2: Offers guidance at the project level for quantification, monitoring, and reporting of greenhouse gas emissions reductions or removal enhancements: Part 2 focuses on GHG projects, providing guidance on how to quantify and report GHG emission reductions or removal enhancements achieved through specific projects or activities. This standard is useful for organizations implementing projects aimed at reducing their carbon footprint or offsetting their emissions.

ISO 14064-3: Offers guidance for the validation and verification of greenhouse gas assertions: Part 3 establishes the requirements and guidance for the validation and verification of GHG assertions. It outlines the principles, procedures, and competencies required for independent third-party entities to assess and provide assurance on the accuracy and reliability of GHG inventories and project-level emissions reductions or removals.

UKCR is dedicated to introduce new standards to compliment the framework offered by the ISO standards in order to offer a more robust, reliable and efficient operation of the registry.
