What Greencarbon-bolivia does

GreenCarbon-Bolivia (legal entity: Green Carbon Partners Pty Ltd) is a forestry conservation project developer founded in 2010 and headquartered in Santa Cruz de la Sierra, Bolivia. The company originates REDD+ (Reducing Emissions from Deforestation and Forest Degradation) projects that generate carbon offsets certified under the Verified Carbon Standard (VCS) and the Climate, Community and Biodiversity (CCB) Standards for sale into the Voluntary Carbon Market. Its current project covers approximately 1.1 million hectares across two land parcels in the Amazon basin of Santa Cruz province, with monitoring and patrolling conducted continuously since 2018 by a team of approximately 40 indigenous monitors under COO Manuel Echeverria, with documented intervention in 84+ cases of illegal logging, land clearing, and trespass. The company holds exclusive forestry conservation development rights for over 9 million hectares across its top 20 proposed projects in South America, and is sourcing additional portfolios in Africa and Southeast Asia. GreenCarbon is the only entity accredited by CIDOB (the Council of Indigenous Peoples of Bolivia) to present and facilitate REDD+ projects in the country, with General Manager Mariel Rivas leading a lean corporate team and partnerships covering carbon quantification (Rusteak SRL / Edwin Ysidoro), legal counsel (Helder Montano), CIDOB relationship management (Juan Carlos), and indigenous relations (Lazaro Laberan).

The core product set comprises REDD+ Carbon Offset Projects, VCS-certified carbon credits (Project 3506), CCB-certified co-benefit credits, Forest Monitoring & Patrolling Services, Carbon Quantification Services, and Community Initiative Programs (roads, mobile clinics, water infrastructure, solar projects, reforestation). Carbon quantification is performed through soil and plot sampling using Geographical Information Systems, with biodiversity co-benefits spanning jaguar, spider monkey, and giant otter habitats. The business model is sales-led and project-based: revenue is generated through (i) sale of voluntary carbon offsets via bilateral arrangements at market-driven pricing (the N-GEO nature-based benchmark reportedly grew over 300% year-over-year to January 2022), and (ii) acquisition and development of exclusive forestry conservation development rights whose value crystallizes upon credit issuance and project registration. GreenCarbon distributes offsets through the global Voluntary Carbon Market ecosystem, targeting corporations, investors, and governments with net-zero and ESG mandates, while relying on indigenous community partnerships and government stakeholder alignment as the upstream supply-side foundation. The company is currently in the VCS/CCB project registration phase (2023-2026), targeting prevention of approximately 100 million tonnes of CO2 emissions over the next decade.

Direct peers

• Wildlife Works: Wildlife Works develops and operates REDD+ forestry conservation projects in Africa and Asia, generating VCS and CCB-certified carbon credits from indigenous and community-owned forests. Highly comparable to GreenCarbon's REDD+ model with indigenous partnerships and dual VCS/CCB certification.
• Ecosecurities Group: Ecosecurities is a carbon project developer and advisory firm with deep experience in REDD+ and nature-based project origination, including in Latin America. Directly comparable to GreenCarbon's project origination, registration, and credit issuance activities under VCS and similar standards.
• Carbon Growth Partners: Carbon Growth Partners develops and invests in nature-based carbon projects, including forestry and ARR methodologies, primarily serving the voluntary market. Comparable project developer model focused on high-integrity nature-based credit origination.
• Carbonbay: Carbonbay develops nature-based carbon projects, including forestry and ARR, with a focus on Latin America and Southeast Asia. Directly comparable to GreenCarbon's REDD+ and forestry project development orientation with similar geographic footprint and standard certifications.

Broad incumbents

• South Pole Group: South Pole is one of the world's largest carbon project developers and advisors, originating REDD+ and other nature-based credits for the voluntary market across multiple geographies. Comparable to GreenCarbon in core REDD+ project development, though operating at far greater scale and breadth including advisory services.
• Climate Impact X: Climate Impact X is a Singapore-based carbon exchange and marketplace focused on high-quality voluntary credits, including nature-based solutions. Comparable end-market platform for the voluntary credits GreenCarbon aims to sell, though operates at exchange level rather than as a primary project originator.
• Rubicon Carbon: Rubicon Carbon is a developer and aggregator of high-quality voluntary carbon credits, including nature-based solutions from forestry projects. Comparable end-market positioning with GreenCarbon as a buyer of nature-based credits, though Rubicon operates primarily as a portfolio aggregator rather than a primary project originator.

Emerging players

• Pachama: Pachama is a technology-driven carbon credit marketplace connecting buyers with nature-based project developers, including forestry and REDD+ projects. Comparable to GreenCarbon as a buyer-facing channel for high-integrity voluntary credits, though operating as a marketplace rather than a primary originator.
• NCX (Nantucket Carbon Exchange): NCX is a marketplace and project enabler for nature-based carbon credits, including improved forest management and afforestation projects in the Americas. Comparable as a buyer-facing channel and origination platform for forestry credits similar to GreenCarbon's output.
• Patch (by Inevitable): Patch is an API-based carbon credit marketplace that distributes high-quality voluntary credits, including nature-based solutions from forestry projects. Comparable as a buyer-facing channel for the same end-buyers GreenCarbon targets, though operating as a technology platform rather than a developer.
