Afforestation is planting new forests on land that has not been forested before. Planting trees on empty land is a way to invest in and increase its value and do good for the planet. We help landowners like you earn carbon credits from afforestation.
Fill out an interest form and share the location of your land, we will run our suitability analysis and prepare a free carbon opportunity asessment of your land.
We will have a call discussing your land analysis and potential carbon income. Once we have agreed on terms, your lands will be allocated to a project.
We will manage the project with Verra and provide constant support to you with ongoing project monitoring. You plant and manage the forest (independently or with a partner) and cover the cost.
You will receive first income from carbon credits 5 years after planting and then every few years after that. Meanwhile you will continue to manage your new forest and we will build relationships with credit buyers.
Swedbank now offers afforestation loans to landowners in Estonia and Latvia.
As an official partner, we offer a sustainability assessment service to support you in preparing the documentation needed for the loan application.
