FAQ
What is Senken and what do we do?
How is Senken different from other carbon credit providers?
Senken differs from other carbon credit providers and platforms through three core pillars:
1. Quality assessment through proprietary Sustainability Integrity Index (SII) - we assess every project based on 600+ datapoints and select only the top 5% of all available projects on the market.
2. End-to-end platform - unlike traditional providers, we support clients from strategy planning to reporting and communication.
4. CSRD-compliant documentation with full traceability for auditors and public,
3. Buyer Protection - if any project in customer's portfolio underdelivers, we replace the credits with a comparable project from our buffer pool.
What quality standards do Senken carbon credits meet?
All Senken credits come from projects certified by top registries including Gold Standard, Verra, and Puro.earth. However, registry certification alone isn't enough - in fact, more than 84% of carbon credits in registries are low quality according to Max Planck Institute study. That's why every project passes through multiple layers of verification:
1. Senken's proprietary 600-data-point Sustainability Integrity Index (SII) due diligence process,
2. Independent third-party ratings from BeZero, Sylvera, and other verification platforms,
3. Oxford Offsetting Principles alignment for client's portfolios,
4. CSRD and SBTi compliance requirements.
We recognize that registry certification is necessary but not sufficient for carbon quality. Our additional screening ensures we find the 5% of credits that deliver real impact.
How much does carbon offsetting cost with Senken?
1. High-quality reduction credits (€8–€25 per tonne) from nature-based projects.
2. Carbon removal credits (€20–€400 per tonne) from nature- and technology-based projects such as afforestation, rewetting of peatland or regenerative agriculture, or biochar or accelerated weathering.
For smaller purchases, customers can use self-service Senken Checkout to buy high-quality projects in minutes. For larger programs, we work with companies aiming to neutralise more than 5,000 tCO2 per year. Budgets typically start around €100,000, depending on emissions and strategy. Senken structures cost-effective, compliant portfolios with transparency, traceability, and clear impact.
