Environmental products, tomorrow is today’s job
Carbon credits offer a key, additional contribution to help businesses achieve net-zero emissions. Shell is clear that carbon credits need to deliver a robust carbon benefit and positively impact ecosystems and communities. We select projects that are certified under credible and independent carbon credit standards, including Verified Carbon Standard, Gold Standard and the American Carbon Registry. We do this to help assess that the carbon credits we offer and use are real and verifiable, and that issues such as permanence, additionality and leakage have been adequately considered.

Compensate emissions with carbon credits
Shell takes a three step approach to decarbonisation:
- Avoid creating emissions
- Reduce emissions
- Compensate for remaining emissions through the use of carbon credits as not all industries can decarbonise at the same rate, with heavy industry and transport often utilising carbon credits to achieve net-zero goals. We actively participate in carbon markets, and have a diverse portfolio of high-quality carbon credits to help our customers reduce their carbon footprint.
Helping your business meet its compliance requirements
Our knowledge, experience and participation in major emissions trading schemes around the world can help you navigate regulatory requirements.
Shell's carbon credit portfolio
Our portfolio of carbon credits is drawn from projects around the world that use various project types to remove carbon from the atmosphere or avoid and reduce greenhouse gas emissions.
We source carbon credits from initiatives that aim to deliver positive impacts for local communities, biodiversity, and habitats. The emissions reductions these projects achieve are verified by independent carbon credit standards.
