South Pole’s 2024 Impact Report

Our 2024 Impact Report highlights South Pole's year of progress as we continue to strengthen our foundations to deliver market-leading services to our clients across climate consulting and climate projects.

A year of transformation at South Pole

With regulation evolving and standards increasing, the expectations for transparency and quality were (and still are) more important than ever in 2024. We responded with renewed focus: delivering true climate impact while reinforcing the trust that underpins our work.

  • We renewed our leadership team with appointments that bring strong transformational expertise in regulated markets and sustainability
  • We doubled down on our mission to provide innovative solutions that enable businesses to transform, helping sustainability leaders enhance net-zero strategies
  • We remained steadfast in our commitment to working alongside project partners, companies and governments to unlock the transformative potential of carbon markets fully
  • We had the privilege of working with some incredible partners that resulted in major milestones like the launch of the Asia Centre of Carbon Excellence, the development of the Coal to Clean Credit Initiative (CCCI) methodology (which Verra approved this year) and made huge strides forward in the availability of certified carbon credit removals (CDRs) through our buyers club NextGen CDR

South Pole has also substantially boosted its environmental, social and governance operations, a strategic move aligned with the growing needs of an evolving market. This enhancement reflects South Pole's commitment to leadership in sustainability and corporate responsibility.
