Validation & Verification Body (VVB) Services
As an accredited Validation and Verification Body (VVB), QRS provides independent third-party assessment of greenhouse gas projects, emission reduction claims, and carbon credits under recognised frameworks including the Verified Carbon Standard (VCS), Gold Standard, Clean Development Mechanism (CDM), and Article 6 of the Paris Agreement.
Our validation and verification services are conducted by experienced climate specialists who provide rigorous, impartial assessments that give credibility to carbon project developers, investors, and organisations reporting on climate performance.
We support organisations throughout the carbon project lifecycle — from feasibility and baseline establishment through to ongoing monitoring, reporting, and verification (MRV) of emission reductions.
