Carbon credits offer a key, additional contribution to help businesses achieve net-zero emissions. Shell is clear that carbon credits need to deliver a robust carbon benefit and positively impact ecosystems and communities. We select projects that are certified under credible and independent carbon credit standards, including Verified Carbon Standard, Gold Standard and the American Carbon Registry. We do this to help assess that the carbon credits we offer and use are real and verifiable, and that issues such as permanence, additionality and leakage have been adequately considered.

Compensate emissions with carbon credits

Compensate emissions with carbon credits

Shell takes a three step approach to decarbonisation: 


  • Avoid creating emissions 

  • Reduce emissions 

  • Compensate for remaining emissions through the use of carbon credits as not all industries can decarbonise at the same rate, with heavy industry and transport often utilising carbon credits to achieve net-zero goals.
We actively participate in carbon markets, and have a diverse portfolio of high-quality carbon credits to help our customers reduce their carbon footprint.
