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.
Will Solutions in a few key figures
850+
Over 850 greenhouse gas reduction projects have been completed by our Sustainable Communities members!
1000+
More than 1000 buildings have measured their greenhouse gas emissions with us!
6,4+
Between 2010 and 2019, 6.4 million tons of greenhouse gases (GHG) have been reduced by our Sustainable Communities and as many carbon credits have been created!
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 850 micro-projects 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-projets 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.
The Kamouraska-Rivière-du-Loup School Board has greatly reduced its greenhouse gas emissions by converting oil heating systems to geothermal systems in 14 primary and secondary school buildings.
One of Caisse Desjardins’ locations has completed an energy conversion and efficiency project that complies with high ecological standards, including installations of solar panels on the roof. This member has subsequently obtained LEED® 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 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 in Quebec and Ontario 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?
Conventional businesses: distribution, retail, manufacturers, finance, transports…
Innovative businesses: Fintechs, IT and other digital players
Building owners and operators
 Public sector organizations: Governments, cities and other public insititutions
