Puro.earth collaborated with Nasdaq to create a first-of-its-kind index family that tracks the price of sequestering carbon through engineered carbon removal. The objective is to improve transparency in the carbon markets and help corporates understand the true cost of neutralizing their emissions. The indexes will also create a price signal that will stimulate the growth of the carbon removal ecosystem by supporting the business case for new carbon removal projects and helping potential investors into these ventures make better-informed decisions.
The CORC Carbon Removal Price Index family consists of a composite index that tracks the price of all CORC transactions as well as a separate index for biochar and bio-based construction materials. More indexes will be added to the family as the number of CORC transactions based on other carbon removal methodologies increase.
