Bryn Arw

Stump Up For Trees / Forest Carbon · United Kingdom, Bannau Brycheiniog, Wales

Bryn Arw is a Woodland Carbon Code woodland creation project on 73.4 hectares in Bannau Brycheiniog, Wales, registered as 104000000027223 and planted in 2020. Its predicted sequestration over the project duration is 28,909 tCO₂e. Units from it are Pending Issuance Units: a promise to deliver a verified Woodland Carbon Unit in future, not a credit that can yet be reported against emissions. Twenty per cent of the project's units go to the Woodland Carbon Code buffer, which covers losses across the scheme. The Code does not publish how many units any individual project still has unsold, so the volume available here is confirmed with the developer when we quote.

This listing offers Pending Issuance Units, not carbon credits

The Woodland Carbon Code defines a Pending Issuance Unit as “a promise to deliver a Woodland Carbon Unit in the future, based on predicted carbon dioxide equivalent removal”. It is not guaranteed, so it cannot be used to report against UK-based emissions. Only a verified Woodland Carbon Unit can do that — and not against overseas emissions, or emissions from international aviation or shipping.

What it is good for: the Code’s own position is that pending units let a company make a credible statement about supporting UK woodland creation, and they lock in future removals at today’s price. Units convert to Woodland Carbon Units once the woodland is found to be performing well at verification — first at year five, then at least every ten years.

Quality assurance

  • Project validated and registered under the Woodland Carbon Code. Units not yet verified.
  • Methodology: Woodland Carbon Code — woodland creation
  • 20% of this project's units go to the Woodland Carbon Code buffer, which covers losses across the scheme
  • Registry record and project documentation checked by Prime Origins. Atlas does not issue, verify or certify units itself.
  • Pending units are assigned to you on the UK Land Carbon Registry, not retired. They become eligible for retirement once the project passes verification and they convert to Woodland Carbon Units.
  • Suitability for your own reporting depends on the unit, the claim and the rules that apply to your organisation. Check before you buy.
