Turnkey carbon neutral event footprint and offseting !
Sustainable construction is at the heart of the building industry’s concerns. Whether you’re a developer, architect or building manager, reducing your carbon footprint is essential to meeting environmental requirements and achieving your carbon neutrality goals.
Our Green-e® Climate certified carbon credits enable you to offset your greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions while meeting LEED® certification criteria. By integrating these credits into your project, you maximize your LEED® points and reinforce your commitment to sustainability.
When should you offset the emissions from your construction project?
The best time to incorporate carbon offsetting depends on how far along your project is. Ideally, it should start at the design stage, to align your choices with low-carbon objectives. It can also take place during a major renovation, or after validation of a carbon-neutral or net-zero plan to ensure residual emissions are neutral.
Why choose our LEED® carbon credits?
In the building sector, reducing greenhouse gas emissions is essential to achieving carbon neutrality and meeting the requirements of environmental certifications such as LEED®.
Our carbon credits are Green-e® Climate certified, guaranteeing their quality and compliance with international standards.
By choosing our solution, you benefit from :
100% verified carbon credits from real, measurable emission reduction projects.
Full compatibility with LEED® to optimize your certification.
A simple, transparent purchasing process tailored to the needs of the construction industry.
How does it work?
Identify your needs
Estimate the quantity of carbon credits required for your LEED® project.
This will depend on the size of the building, the residual carbon footprint after the application of emission reduction strategies, and the LEED® certification targets.
Buy your carbon credits
We offer you a turnkey solution with a simple, transparent interface for ordering your carbon credits. Once the purchase has been made, you’ll receive an official attestation showing the volume of carbon offset, certified by Green-e Climate.
Apply them to your certification
The U.S. Green Building Council (USGBC) recognizes Green-e Climate carbon credits as a lever for improving a building’s score under the LEED point system. So you can :
– Optimize your certification by reaching a higher level (Silver, Gold or Platinum).
– Improve your environmental footprint by offsetting unavoidable emissions linked to the construction and operation of your building.
– Reinforce your commitment to sustainable development and enhance your image with customers and investors.

Frequently asked questions (FAQ) | LEED® and Green-e® Climate carbon offsetting
Find out how you can make your event carbon neutral with our expert advice and services.
What is the carbon impact of a construction site and how can it be offset?
The carbon footprint of a construction site is generally between 850 and 1,000 kg of CO₂e per m², depending on the nature of the work (new or refurbishment).
These emissions can be offset by supporting certified carbon projects. This is a concrete solution for reducing the environmental footprint of construction sites and meeting growing expectations in terms of climate performance.
Why choose Green-e® Climate certified carbon credits?
Green-e® Climate credits are recognized for their rigor and transparency, guaranteeing a real reduction in GHG emissions.
Can carbon credits be used to earn LEED® points?
Yes, carbon offsetting is a key lever for maximizing your LEED® certification score.
How much do carbon credits cost for a construction project?
The price depends on the volume required and the specifics of your project. Contact us for a personalized estimate.
When should carbon offsetting be integrated into a LEED® project?
Ideally, this should be done at the project design stage, to optimize emission reduction strategies and complement them with the necessary offsetting. However, it is also possible to purchase carbon credits once the project has been built to meet LEED® requirements.
What is the difference between Green-e® Climate carbon credits and other types of credits?
Green-e® Climate credits are certified according to strict standards that guarantee their transparency and real impact. Unlike some uncertified offsets, they are internationally recognized and directly applicable to LEED® certifications. This ensures compatibility between your carbon offset objectives and your LEED® commitments.
How can I find out how many carbon credits are needed for my project?
We can help you calculate your offsetting needs according to your project and certification objectives. See our corporate carbon footprint offer.
