Handbook for Geostorage and Carbon Crediting 2.0

IETA has launched the updated Handbook for Geostorage and Carbon Crediting 2.0.


Handbook for Geostorage and Carbon Crediting 2.0

This refreshed edition brings together the latest methodologies, safeguards, and developments in engineered carbon removals and carbon capture and storage, serving as a practical reference for practitioners and policymakers on methodological design, safeguards, and measurement, reporting and verification (MRV).

The first edition, published in 2024, built on IETA’s earlier work to establish best practice guidance for crediting geological carbon dioxide (CO₂) storage within carbon markets. Handbook 2.0 continues this mission, providing an up-to-date resource to reflect the evolving landscape of carbon market methodologies and standards.
