In this episode of the Pitch, I spoke with Stenver Jerkku about how his company Solid World is working to improve liquidity and transparency in the forward carbon credit market. We discussed how Solid World is creating tokenized prepaid carbon credit pools that allow project developers to sell carbon credits upfront in order to obtain funding. This aims to streamline a process that currently lacks visibility and liquidity. Stenver explained that key metrics like total value locked in the pools and trading volumes have been increasing since launch. While delivery risk remains, Solid World's rigorous vetting process provides projects access to a standardized sales channel. It was fascinating to learn more about the innovative solutions Solid World is bringing to scale high-quality climate action globally.
