About KL1
KL1 is a carbon development and advisory firm that partners with landowners, governments, and corporations to create high-integrity carbon projects. We combine science, finance, and technology to turn natural assets into measurable climate value, bridging local ecosystems with global markets through transparency, innovation, and long-term impact.
How we work.
From Design to Finance & Execution.
KL1 provides end-to-end advisory and execution for carbon credit development. We turn project ideas into verified, investable assets through rigorous technical design, financial structuring, and transparent monitoring — enabling our partners to access global carbon markets with confidence and long-term integrity.
Certification & Validation
Turning technical design into certified documentation
Our team develops the complete Project Design Document (PDD), conducts field data collection, and manages validation with accredited auditors. We ensure all parameters meet Verra or Gold Standard requirements for registration.
Implementation & MRV
Delivering impact through monitoring and verification
We oversee on-ground implementation, safeguard compliance, and deploy digital MRV systems that integrate satellite and field data to track performance, verification, and carbon credit issuance over time.
Design & Feasibility
Building scientific and methodological foundations
We identify eligible land, assess feasibility, and define the project’s technical route. Our team selects and adapts methodologies (REDD+, ARR, IFM, Agriculture) under Verra or Gold Standard, builds preliminary baselines, and sets the framework for additionality, leakage, and safeguards.
Structuring & Finance
Transforming climate potential into investable projects
KL1 structures the financial and legal frameworks that bring projects to life. We design SPVs, ERPAs, and offtake contracts, mobilizing impact capital and guaranteeing transparency for investors and landowners.
Strategic Partners
KL1 collaborates with a network of institutions that strengthen every stage of the carbon project value chain. Our partners include verification bodies, investment funds, technology providers, local universities and government instituions that share our commitment to integrity, innovation, and measurable impact.
Together, we accelerate the transition toward a low-carbon, regenerative economy.
Technology & dMRV
We work with satellite data providers, AI platforms, and drone operators to build transparent monitoring systems. Our dMRV tools measure biomass, regeneration, and community impact—linking technology with purpose and verifiable climate integrity.
Investment Funds & Corporate Carbon Offtakers
We work with impact investors, climate funds, and corporate buyers to structure transparent, high-integrity offtake agreements. KL1 connects capital with verified carbon projects, ensuring traceability, long-term value, and measurable impact across the voluntary and compliance carbon markets.
Local Universities & NGOs.
We work with local universities and NGOs that provide regional knowledge, technical expertise, and on-the-ground support. Their collaboration helps KL1 adapt our methodologies, technology, and social frameworks to the specific ecological, cultural, and governance contexts of each project.
