Proba achieves ICROA Conditional Endorsement

This conditional endorsement confirms that Proba’s carbon crediting programme meets ICROA’s Carbon Crediting Programme Endorsement Review Criteria (version 3.5), with a temporary exception to the scale requirement. Proba’s standard helps project developers quantify and verify emissions reductions from sustainability projects. These verified reductions can be issued as certificates, which can be used to support insetting business models. The certificates help attract co-financing from partners across the value chain to fund further emissions reduction interventions.

Full endorsement will be granted upon reaching the threshold of at least ten registered projects and issuance of over 100,000 tCO₂e in carbon certificates. Proba is currently on track to meet this requirement.

Franco D’Aprile, ICROA Programme Manager, said: “Congratulations to Proba on achieving ICROA Conditional Endorsement. Throughout the application and review process, they welcomed feedback and used it to enhance and strengthen their programme. We’re delighted they can now showcase their commitment to integrity through the ICROA label.”

Rutger Beens, Proba COO, said: “This is an important milestone for Proba. The Conditional Endorsement by ICROA demonstrates that our programme already meets their rigorous criteria for environmental integrity, transparency, and impact: all cornerstones of a credible voluntary carbon market. It validates our approach.”
