Chatham Islands / Rēkohu Project (Verity NZ)

Why we represent it

Verity NZ is one of Valitera's longest-standing strategic partners. Under a 10-year agreement commencing in 2025, Valitera acts as the exclusive commercialisation partner for Verity's project pipeline while also advising the company on strategy, capital formation and M&A. The Chatham Islands / Rēkohu Project is a particularly strong expression of that partnership. It combines native ecosystem restoration, New Zealand provenance and rigorous measurement with an independent A.pre ex-ante rating from BeZero Carbon. On BeZero's published rating distribution, that places the project among the stronger-rated ARR and forestry projects globally ahead of issuance. We see Verity's New Zealand supply as premium ARR. The project is built around native species restoration rather than monoculture forestry, uses direct field and remote-sensing measurement, and operates through a model that shares carbon revenues with participating landowners. For buyers seeking high-integrity removals with strong biodiversity, landowner and geographic differentiation, Rēkohu offers a particularly compelling proposition.

The Chatham Islands / Rēkohu Project is a landscape-scale native forest restoration project on the Chatham Islands, approximately 800 kilometres east of mainland New Zealand. Working with multiple local landowners, Verity NZ removes barriers to natural regeneration and accelerates the recovery of native vegetation using a combination of restoration techniques, including aerial seeding. Carbon outcomes are monitored through soil sampling, LiDAR-equipped drones and permanent vegetation plots, providing direct measurement of changes across the landscape. Participating landowners share in revenues generated from carbon and associated co-benefit credits, while project land is protected under covenant for at least 30 years. The restoration of native vegetation also supports biodiversity recovery and creates local employment opportunities. The project is registered in the Verra pipeline as VCS Project 5576 and has received an A.pre ex-ante rating from BeZero Carbon. Validation is expected in late 2026, with first credit issuance targeted for late 2027.

EXCLUSIVE PROJECT - 1 OF 30

US SecondCrop™ Microbial Carbon Removal (Loam Bio, USA)

Why we represent it

Valitera represents Loam Bio's US SecondCrop™ carbon credits across Europe and Asia under an exclusive agency mandate. We see the project as a premium durable-removals opportunity: scientifically differentiated, scalable and directly integrated into existing agricultural systems without requiring land use change or displacing food production. The project is Gold Standard-listed under GS23491 and holds a Sylvera Pre-Issuance Rating of A. Carbon removal is quantified through direct soil sampling and re-measurement, with a 20% buffer pool providing additional protection against reversal. Forward supply is also expected to scale materially over the coming years, giving buyers greater visibility on future availability than is typical for emerging carbon removal pathways. For buyers, the combination is compelling: durable soil carbon removal, strong measurement, agricultural co-benefits and a pathway that can sit comfortably within both diversified removals portfolios and broader value-chain decarbonisation strategies. We also believe Loam's technology and farmer-led model give the project a particularly strong story for corporates seeking credible exposure to agricultural carbon removal.

US SecondCrop™ is a microbial carbon removal project developed by Loam Bio across corn and soybean farms in the US Midwest. Farmers apply CarbonBuilder™, Loam's patented fungal seed coating, which works with plant roots to move carbon drawn down through photosynthesis into more stable forms of soil carbon. A key feature of the project is that farmers can continue using the same land, crops and equipment. There is no requirement for land use change, and the carbon removal process is designed to operate alongside existing food production. Carbon outcomes are measured through direct soil sampling and independently verified under Gold Standard requirements. The project includes a 20% buffer pool and currently holds a Sylvera Pre-Issuance Rating of A. Beyond carbon removal, the project is designed to improve soil structure, water retention and biodiversity while returning a significant share of carbon revenue directly to participating farmers. The project contributes to UN SDGs 2 (Zero Hunger), 13 (Climate Action) and 15 (Life on Land).
