For Landowners

Highland Carbon offers a full range of Natural Capital services spanning climate projects which generate carbon offsetting units and rewilding projects that create nature and biodiversity units.

Carbon Offsetting

Carbon offsetting projects develop substantial capital for estates whilst increasing their natural capital value. The funds generated can help estates to develop other opportunities as they see fit such as renewable energy, events businesses, ecotourism and improved farming.

Highland Carbon has a track record of selling quality projects with authentic impacts whilst achieving a strong unit price for landowners. We achieve a strong price as we have substantial experience in biodiversity and landscape conservation. We also support our company buyers with stacked Sustainable Development Goal outputs and exceptional content for their communications.

We are totally transparent with each landowner client with respect to the retail price at which we sell units, the wholesale price they will be paid and we offer a carbon value tracker. If the carbon value increases, we will increase the retail price on your behalf. We are committed to a low commission rate, and we offer a low commission guarantee.

We can offer a full Project Developer and Broker service from project conception to design, implementation and brokerage service. Alternatively, we can offer a Broker service alone whilst coming alongside a third-party Project Developer or your inhouse forestry team. We support you and your team to scope out the opportunities, and to ensure that you do not limit the other scope for other revenue to arise from your land management strategy.

The capital raised from offsetting can unleash your wider aspirations for the estate, such as: hosting weddings, accommodation, renewable energy, farming and eco-toursim.

Biodiversity/Nature Units

Highland Carbon undertakes baseline ecological assessments to develop nature restoration strategies and to generate revenue from habitat restoration and rewilding activity. Given our knowledge of the nature finance market, we are able to source buyers for the units that arise from such projects. Combined with our services in the carbon arena, we are able to maximise revenue to estates across all nature-base revenue opportunities.
