Will Solutions is a leader in community-based greenhouse gas reduction solutions.
We are a Canadian B Corp-certified company committed to climate action and focused on achieving the carbon neutrality goals of 2030 and 2050.
For nearly two decades, we have been using our expertise to quantify greenhouse gas (GHG) reductions from local projects and democratize access to the voluntary carbon markets for project owners and high-quality carbon credits for carbon offset buyers.
Our Carbon Services
At Will Solutions, we are committed to the quality and efficiency of your eco-responsible initiatives. For effective climate action, we will always advocate a decarbonization plan that follows these key steps: first measurement, then reductions and finally carbon offsetting. Â
1
Measure
We calculate the carbon footprint of your business in order to guide you towards new opportunities for reducing greenhouse gas emissions according to your sustainable development goals.
– Calculation of scopes 1, 2 and 3
– International standard ISO 14064-1: 2018
– Your carbon footprint calculation may be eligible for up to 75% funding
2
Reduce
We stimulate, quantify and qualify the greenhouse gas reductions of your company’s actions.
We then convert your tons of CO2e reductions into high-quality carbon credits, which we sell on the voluntary carbon markets to financially reward your climate efforts.
3
Offset
We offer VCS-certified, high-quality carbon credits to offset the incompressible greenhouse gas emissions from your business activities or individual activities.
The carbon offsets purchase is a concrete, pragmatic and measurable climate action with high added value for the environment, the society and the economy.

Carbon offsetting: what is it?
Offsetting their carbon footprint allows individuals, companies, organizations, and communities to balance their own GHG emissions by financing GHG reduction projects carried out by a third party. Committed players can therefore offset their incompressible CO2e (e: equivalent) emissions and those inherent to their operations and achieve carbon neutrality in accordance with net zero objectives. This is an innovative type of climate commitment that is at once accessible, pragmatic, participatory, and community-based.
Our carbon offsets come from a grouping of more than 2500 microprojects carried out by numerous small and medium-sized companies from various sectors, non-profit organizations and Quebec municipalities whose actions to reduce greenhouse gases are grouped under what we call the « Sustainable Community ». Each micro-project has been validated under the Verified Carbon Standard (VCS) program.
A few GHG reduction micro-projects from the Sustainable Community
The MRC de Témiscamingue enables a significant reduction in greenhouse gas emissions on its territory by recovering urban biomass, composting organic materials and recycling paper and cardboard.

Saint-Édouard-de-Fabre, Qc
Recyc PHP efficiently recovers industrial waste, particularly hygiene products that are difficult to process. Thanks to technological advances, the company transforms waste into reusable raw materials, promoting a more circular and sustainable economy and helping to reduce greenhouse gas emissions.

This Caisse Desjardins carried out energy conversion and efficiency projects, including building energy efficiency work to high ecological standards and the installation of solar panels on the roof. These measures reduced its energy consumption and greenhouse gas emissions, earning it LEED® Gold certification.

How do we calculate your carbon footprint?
Although GHG emissions are invisible, today it is possible to calculate your carbon footprint fairly accurately. Calculating your footprint is the first essential step in achieving your eco-responsible objectives. Indeed, your carbon footprint allows you to obtain a reference year, identify your main sources of emissions and know your priority GHG reduction actions.
Why offset your GHG emissions through projects in Quebec and Ontario?
The fight against climate change is primarily about reducing the GHG emissions we emit. However, when we can no longer reduce these emissions, carbon offsetting becomes an effective complementary solution to contribute to other projects’ efforts.
Offsetting your GHG emissions through Quebec and Ontario based projects with Will Solutions is the guarantee of offsets with a strong local impact on environmental, social and economic criteria. Through our community-based approach, you directly support Canadian SMEs and small organizations, and benefit from the assurance of high standards of quantification and verification (all our carbon credits are derived from our methodology, validated by Verra). Finally, you become a contributor to a visionary carbon offset program (Our Sustainable Community cluster project is the first cluster project validated by Verra, worldwide).
Who are the major buyers of carbon offsets?
Multi-sector companies: finance, distribution, retail, construction, manufacturing, transport.
Innovative companies: technology, telecommunications, services and other digital players
Conferences and events with sustainable objectives, such as the Loto-Québec Fireworks.
Public sector: governments, cities and other public players, such as the City of Montreal
Individual philanthropists who, for example, offset their annual emissions or travel-related emissions.
Hundreds of organizations, communities and multi-sector companies have trusted us with their decarbonization strategy for over 15 years.
