To help strengthen this market, the NIL has developed a standard draft agreement for the purchase and sale of carbon credits (offtake).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This instrument aims to guide and support different market players \u2014 especially small and medium-sized entrepreneurs \u2014 by offering a reference model that includes the key legal elements such transactions should cover. In doing so, it helps enable access to capital and accelerate the implementation of projects with positive impacts on climate and biodiversity.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The first version of the draft is now available. From this starting point, we will listen to the ecosystem to gather feedback and collaboratively improve the document.
