Science-first

A science-first approach to providing accurate, reliable climate data for nature-based solutions.

Track forest carbon, conduct deep dives into the geospatial data and analyse additionality, baseline, leakage and permanence data on a trusted platform. Using AI, conduct predictive carbon modelling and more — get informed with high quality, and high integrity data for your next project.

Additionality

Evidence the carbon benefit would not have happened without the project.

Permanence

How durably the stored carbon stays out of the atmosphere over time.

Leakage

Emissions displaced beyond the project boundary, measured and accounted for.

Baseline

The reference scenario the project's impact is measured against.

Our capability

Due diligence across every stage of your project.

Our due diligence service covers nature-based carbon offset projects of various stages of development: pre-feasibility, feasibility and project design phase. Lean on the use of our leading technology and our team of experts to apply industry-leading methodologies to the project of your interest today.

1

Pre-feasibility

We conduct pre-feasibility assessments on projects that are yet to begin. This includes actual ground surveying, and analysing risks such as additionality, permanence, and applicability to VCS or GS methodologies. Once completed, we present the findings to you in a detailed report format.

Feasibility

At the feasibility stage, NIKA will apply the selected VCS or GS methodologies such as VM0048 to the project. Currently, only a very small group of people in the industry can execute on this due to the complex models involved — NIKA is one of them.

Project Design

When your project enters the development phase, a Project Design Document (PDD) needs to be drafted. Choose NIKA to be the technical advisor for the design and implementation of your project. The NIKA team has fixed-wing flying experience as well as data collection.
