A trusted marketplace for sourcing and managing African green attributes

Overview

The latest Green Asset Exchange marketplace update introduces a significantly improved user experience, making it easier to find, compare, and purchase credible African green assets. Enhanced search, clearer pricing, multi-asset purchasing, and deeper project visibility support more informed decision-making across voluntary and compliance-driven markets.

A Stronger, More Intuitive User Experience

The rebuilt marketplace places a strong emphasis on usability and clarity. Buyers can now find, compare, and transact credits more efficiently, reducing friction throughout the buying process.

Assets are available across a range of prices, allowing buyers to build portfolios that reflect different compliance needs, budget constraints, and procurement strategies, rather than being forced into a single price or structure. Multiple assets can also be purchased in a single transaction, streamlining execution and administration.

Finding the Right Credits, Faster

Search and filtering have been significantly improved to help buyers quickly identify assets that are relevant to their use case. Users can browse and filter credits based on applicability, including voluntary offsetting, South African Carbon Tax (COAS), Article 6 alignment, and CORSIA, and access clear project-level information for each listing where the sustainability and social impacts of each project are highlighted.

This allows buyers to move beyond price alone and better understand project type, methodology, geography, and impact before transacting.

At launch, the marketplace includes verified voluntary carbon credits and Renewable Energy Certificates (RECs), with COAS-eligible assets being onboarded shortly.

Transparency at the Project Level

Each asset listing links directly to detailed project information, helping buyers understand where credits come from, how they are generated, and what impact they support. This transparency is a core part of building trust and enabling informed participation in the market.

Features Coming Soon

We’re actively developing new functionality to better support corporate buyers and project partners, including:

  • Auction-based sales, enabling price discovery for larger volumes
  • Structured standing buy orders, allowing organisations to schedule purchases against predefined timelines (for example, ahead of reporting or tax periods)
  • Enhanced organisational accounts, enabling multiple users to manage portfolios, approvals, and asset tracking within a single organisation

These features are designed to support more structured procurement and portfolio management as the market continues to mature.

Building Market Infrastructure for Africa

As green attributes become increasingly important across South Africa and the rest of Africa, robust market infrastructure matters. The Green Asset Exchange is designed to support credible participation -whether for compliance, voluntary action, or longer-term climate strategies.

If you’re looking to source green assets, understand your options, or engage with African climate projects in a more structured way, we invite you to explore the marketplace.
