- Transparency in project assessment: The partnership aims to strengthen data integrity in MRV and risk assessment across the carbon market.
- Faster, more connected validation and verification: The two organizations will explore digital solutions, including TÜV SÜD’s dMRV-enabled verification platform, to make validation and verification faster and more connected.
- Shared market insights: The partners intend to develop joint benchmarks and insights on validation, verification, and issuance best practices as well as carbon project risk management.
CEEZER, the leading platform for Climate Performance Assets, and TÜV SÜD, one of the world’s leading testing, inspection, and certification bodies, today announce a partnership to advance a high-integrity carbon market built on digital tooling and end-to-end transparency.
Announced during a shared panel at COP31, the partnership combines TÜV SÜD’s independent assurance expertise and digital MRV focus with CEEZER’s market-leading platform and risk tooling, which help the market find, assess, and deliver high-quality carbon projects.
Transparency and data integrity in project assessment
The two organizations intend to exchange insights and best practices on carbon credit validation to make project screening, risk assessment, and delivery forecasting faster and more accurate. They will also explore better ways to share project data with developers who work with both organizations.
Faster, more connected validation and verification
The partners will explore how TÜV SÜD’s digital verification tools can make validation outcomes more automated and connected. TÜV SÜD also intends to offer its validation and verification services to CEEZER’s carbon project partners.
Shared insights that raise the bar for risk management
The partners intend to develop joint market benchmarks on validation, verification, and issuance timelines. The collaboration also includes joint publications and insights on carbon project risk management and best practices in data integrity and third-party assurance.
“A carbon market people can trust needs more than good intentions; it needs proof,” said Magnus Drewelies, CEO of CEEZER. “Together with TÜV SÜD, we will collaborate to make that proof easier to produce, to verify, and to compare, from the first project screening to final issuance.”
“Reliable data is the foundation of a credible carbon market,” said Dr. Céline Bilolo, Chief Sustainability Officer at TÜV SÜD. “By working with CEEZER on what trusted digital tooling looks like in the carbon market, shared benchmarks, and best practices in third-party assurance, we aim to help buyers and project developers base their decisions - and business - on information they can trust.”
