As the global trend in managing environmental assets moves towards price based mechanisms, a robust global registry is an essential tool in order to provide the required transparency and credibility.
Product summary:
Effective and efficient financial market based registry solutions will become even more important as restrictions on carbon and other environmental products are further tightened by Governments and as the voluntary carbon markets play an increasingly important part in reducing global emissions. Only credible and robust financial infrastructure with inherent flexibility will best serve this fast growing marketplace.
Markit Environmental Registry allows accountholders to manage all their environmental credits – carbon, biodiversity, water, ecosystems - in one place. Issuances are audited by the registry to ensure they have received the appropriate accreditation and to check that they have not been previously issued. Credits receive a unique reference number so they may be monitored through their entire life-cycle. Retired credits are held and can be viewed on the registry, ensuring the same credits are not re-issued or sold at a later date.
Key benefits:
-Transparent listing and issuance process for carbon and ecosystem credits
-Portfolio management tools including visibility of ownership throughout the lifecycle of credible environmental assets
-Full Retirement services for offsetting credits, including certification and statement reporting
-Straight through processing and delivery versus payment functionality
Key functions:
-Meta-registry capable of holding all environmental credits
-Interoperability capabilities with other environmental registries
-Credible, flexible and secure
-24 x 7 availability
-Transparent and objective Registry Rules tailored specifically for the voluntary carbon market
-Externally audited registry technology and processes

No Acid Rain:
Our oxygen free process prevents the emission of harmful chemicals and off gassing into the atmosphere. Therefore, we do not contribute to acid rain.

Examples of other feedstock include but are not limited to: auto shredded residue, tires, high chlorinated plastics, waste oil, paint, waste water sludge, paper, biomass and wood.
