Senken vs ClimatePartner
Quality Assurance
600+ Data Point Due Diligence
Proprietary Sustainability Integrity Index analyzes project risks, permanence, and leakage beyond standard registry checks.
Standard Registry Verification
Relies on basic registry approval (Verra/Gold Standard) without independent, deep-dive risk assessment.
Buyer Protection
Automated Replacement Guarantee
If a project underperforms or is invalidated, credits are automatically replaced with equal quality assets.
No Default Protection
Buyer bears the reputational and financial risk if credits are later deemed "junk" or invalidated.
Reporting & Data
Machine-Readable & Real-Time
API-first data ready for CSRD audits. Instant access to project documentation and retirement proofs.
Annual Manual PDFs
Static reports that are difficult to verify and often lack the granularity required for new EU compliance standards.
Compliance (CSRD & SBTi)
Audit-Ready by Design
Full project transparency ensures compliance with strict CSRD and Green Claims Directive regulations.
"Black Box" Bundles
Aggregated portfolios with hidden fees make it difficult to pass strict financial or sustainability audits.
Methodology coverage
High-Integrity Projects Only
Focus on durable CDR (Removal) and verified avoidance. High-risk types (e.g., unverified cookstoves) are excluded.
Volume-Based Mix
Heavy reliance on legacy methodologies (e.g., older forestry & cookstoves) recently criticized for over-crediting.
Software & Technology
Digital Platform with Bespoke Advisory
Self-serve procurement, portfolio management, and instant retirement certificates via a modern dashboard.
Consultancy & Manual Service
Procurement requires sales calls and manual processing. No real-time visibility into portfolio performance.
Provider Reputation
Trusted Innovation Leader
Zero accusations of greenwashing. Trusted by forward-thinking leaders like Vodafone and Deutsche Telekom.
Legacy Media Scrutiny
Subject to multiple high-profile investigations regarding the validity of "Carbon Neutral" labels and project quality.
