Housing Decarbonisation in the United Kingdom

PNZ Carbon · United Kingdom

PNZ Carbon originates verified carbon credits from the decarbonisation of UK housing stock, delivered with housing associations and their retrofit programmes. Alongside the emission reduction, each credit carries a social value figure quantified using the UK Social Value Bank developed by HACT (Housing Associations Charitable Trust) with Simetrica-Jacobs — an approach recognised in HM Treasury's Green Book. Credits are issued under Verra's Verified Carbon Standard using VM0008, the building weatherization methodology. For UK buyers this offers domestic, near-sourced abatement with a defensible social-impact narrative attached.
