InfothekAre certificates available only for German or European climate protection projects?

Information library 005Answer

The option to exclude national climate protection successes from being counted towards climate protection targets is not provided for in Germany and the EU. Therefore, double counting can only be avoided if certified climate protection successes are not counted towards a separate voluntary climate protection target but are identified as contributions to the national climate protection target. Quantified climate protection successes can be offered and sold on the voluntary market as before; only the accompanying communication must be adapted. You can find more relevant information on our thematic site.
