Exceeding Symbiosis and ABACUS criteria by default
Reimagine Removals
Redefining the bar
Revalue takes the latest certification standards as the start line, not the finish line.
Optimal site selection
Selecting the right area requires careful consideration beyond basic landscape criteria.
Our #1 priority is respecting and retaining natural habitats.
We assess ecological suitability across multiple dimensions.
We optimise for operational suitability, making project more viable and feasible.
Mirroring nature by design.
We mimic the complex, natural state of the forest to boost resilience and permanence.
We don't do tree farms.
We ensure a diverse set of native and naturalised species.
We ensure genetic diversity within species.
Deflated baselines. 1.2 tons per credit.
Historically, too many historic credits equated to less than 1 ton of real world emissions.
Model V gives you confidence that each credit is at least 1.0 ton of real world impact.
We deflate the baseline even
after
using conservative assumptions, LiDAR-backed biomass estimations, and Dynamic Baseline Checks.
Credits you (and the planet) can trust.
LiDAR for accurate biomass estimations.
Traditional methods for estimating biomass lack can lead to significant measurement errors.
Under-canopy LiDAR (TLS) for far greater accuracy and precision in biomass structure measurements.
Drone-based LiDAR (ALS) for greater range and sampling.
eDNA+ for advanced biodiversity monitoring.
Historical biodiversity monitoring has been constrained by resource and technological limitations.
Cutting-edge eDNA
techniques for additional identification of species present.
Bioacoustics + camera traps
for even richer data on where species are present.
Our connectivity metric measures the change in habitat connectivity over time.
Next-level community impact measurements.
In the past it has been hard to get a real understanding of the impact on and role of local communities in the project.
Rigorous community surveys to understand the real impact for communities.
Effective sampling strategies, unbiased questions and advanced analytics to draw statistical significance.
Survey after FPIC to get a day-zero check on FPIC effectiveness and address flags upfront.
Model V Includes
We have not stopped at a few improvements.
Our models come with all guardrails built-in.
Ratings agency assurance
Pre issuance ratings to get third-party validation on project fundamentals.
Resilience reserve
Capital reserve which can be drawn down in case of delays or issues.
Risk insurance
Insurance covering key risks, such as political and delivery risks.
Always additional
Additionality checks ahead of every issuance.
Article 6 authorisation
Approval for Corresponding Adjustments (CAs) where jurisdictionally appropriate.
Computer vision monitoring
Deep learning to identify new roads and other important events in the landscape.

Talk to Us
Always improving (not perfect).
Revalue's Model V credit approach is a leap into the future for avoidance credits.
However, we will never claim to be perfect. There will always be ways to improve our credits.

We welcome feedback and strive to improve our Models every year.
