Voluntary carbon markets provide a mechanism for companies that reduce or avoid GHG emissions — through forest conservation, renewable energy, methane capture, energy efficiency, or other activities — to generate verified carbon credits that can be sold to other companies seeking to offset their residual emissions. Indonesia has a growing domestic carbon market under Perpres 98/2021 and IDX Carbon, alongside international voluntary markets through Verra VCS, Gold Standard, and Plan Vivo. For companies with emission reduction activities that meet additionality, permanence, and measurability criteria, carbon credit development can generate meaningful revenue streams.
