Registro Nacional de Créditos de Carbono

National Carbon Credit Registry

The National Carbon Credit Registry is a platform developed by UNDP to facilitate the management of carbon credits. Using blockchain technology, this system ensures transparency and efficiency in the transfer of credits, helping countries meet their commitments under the Paris Agreement. Being customizable, it adapts to the specific needs of each country, allowing effective integration into its carbon mitigation programs. This registry helps avoid double counting and ensures that each carbon credit is accounted for correctly, thus supporting the fight against climate change.

The National Carbon Credit Registry solves several critical problems associated with carbon credit management, such as lack of transparency, complexity in transferring credits, and the risk of double counting. By providing a centralized and secure blockchain-based system, it allows countries and entities to register and manage carbon credits efficiently and transparently, meeting the requirements of the Paris Agreement and encouraging greater participation in climate change mitigation efforts.
