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.
