Question 2

How much can I earn from carbon credits?

Accepted Answer

Land restoration projects typically earn $12–25 per tonne of CO₂ sequestered per year. Clean energy projects earn $5–25/t and circular economy projects $5–150/t depending on the activity. A 10-hectare forest can generate $1,500–$3,000 per year.

Question 3

What types of projects qualify for carbon credits?

Kabon.Africa supports three project categories: Land Restoration (forests, savannas, wetlands, mangroves, farmland), Clean Energy (biogas, solar PV, improved cookstoves, micro-hydro, wind), and Circular Economy (plastic recycling, e-waste recovery, organic composting, textile recycling, waste heat recovery, industrial efficiency).

Every project is independently verified against the Kabon Carbon Standard (KCS), combining satellite monitoring, IoT sensor data, and field inspections by accredited verifiers. No credits are issued until verification is complete.
