KlimaDAO Forum

This is a great initiative and I agree with others here about how this is the right move for KlimaDAO.

Since KlimaDAO would receive 31,250 carbon credits in total out of 1 million tCO2 over 5 years (200k per annum), could we've more information on who the other investors are who'll be receiving the remaining carbon credits?

Could we also have more information on how many cookstoves are planned to be purchased and distributed using the $250k investment?

Can you please clarify, if the Gold Standard approved for this project, will be retired through Klima, or conventionally?
Does the Klima protocol have any medium or long term benefit from the program other than gratification?

Smickey I am taking care of arranging a neutral body that can vigilate on this deals.
More will come soon, as said yestereday in the office hours

CrazyTurk we can't talk about tokenization, yet. About benefit, if you think about it, it's a IRL carbon credit.

I strong feel that this is a great move forward for KlimaDAO and I support supporting this project through SCB.

Drw Thanks for the feedback and the questions:

-I know StarCB has been active in bringing carbon supply on-chain, prior to the tokenization ban, and in offering digital carbon to its clients. Would StarCB bring additional tonnage on-chain fitting the EEIMP pools criteria (or other pools) on its own accord to help boost digital carbon liquidity?

Prior to the tokenization restrictions, SCB was indeed deeply involved in the on-chain carbon liquidity lifecycle as well as extensive promotion of tokenized credits to SCB’s large customer base. The rationale behind such an involvement is SCB’s core belief in innovation and its positive impact on the market. Therefore, assuming a positive outcome from the registries regarding tokenization, SCB will boost carbon liquidity as it is in a prime position to do so, given our team's knowledge and expertise of the offchain and onchain world.

-How can StarCB provide project updates to the wider KlimaDAO community as things progress with the deployment of cookstoves and the impact on local communities over the project’s lifetime?

The main goal would be to be able to implement a public update schedule. The content of those updates will need to be defined with KlimaDAO to comply with the community but as a first step SCB will deliver photos and videos of the deployment phase of the project that will happen during our visit at the end of November as well as general documentation on the ongoing activities.

-What contractual risk-mitigation can StarCB provide KlimaDAO? Given the large expected issuance per year, who is taking on the risk should under delivery occur? Are the credits allocated to KlimaDAO guaranteed under an under delivery scenario? If the project faces considerable under delivery, can StarCB guarantee credits from a similar project (vintage + technology type)?

As mentioned in the draft VERPA, in case of under delivery SCB offers replacement options with credits from a comparable project (vintage, location & project type). Please do refer to the VERPA for the legal terms.

-Will StarCB share a draft VERPA agreement so that we can perform a legal review?

Naturally, by this time a VERPA draft has already been sent to your teams for review.

@CarbonPapi could you clarify which specific Gold Standard methodology this project is implementing? TPDDTEC or GS Simplified?

SIMPLIFIED METHODOLOGY FOR CLEAN AND EFFICIENT COOKSTOVES V3.0

andybash12 I appreciate the support and thank you for the questions:

Since KlimaDAO would receive 31,250 carbon credits in total out of 1 million tCO2 over 5 years (200k per annum), could we've more information on who the other investors are who'll be receiving the remaining carbon credits?

SCB is the sole investor on this project.
SCB is going to receive the remaining carbon credits.

Could we also have more information on how many cookstoves are planned to be purchased and distributed using the $250k investment?

So as to insulate SCB and Klima from potentially lower output we link the contract to issued VERs and not cookstoves.
As a fun-fact good quality cookstoves are manufactured at $25 each assuming one purchases on industrial scale.

Isn't $8 ton pretty expensive for a 3 year lock on voluntary carbon credits?

CarbonPapi Any details on how the values of 1 million tonnes of CO2 abatement over a 5 year period has been arrived at? How many cookstoves need to be deployed and what utilisation each requires to be a verified X tonnes of carbon, thanks.
