Carbon Markets and MRV grants

Grants and contracts for measurement, reporting and verification, registries and carbon-market infrastructure. Active funders include the EU Carbon Removal Certification Framework, US DOE V-MRV, Innovate UK, and the standards bodies and buyers underpinning the voluntary market. Listed below are the open carbon markets and MRV grant calls in that landscape, taken from each funder's own notice and re-checked on every refresh.

Carbon funding is unusually concentrated in sovereign and philanthropic money, because most of the sector has no natural commercial buyer yet. The large recurring programmes are the US Department of Energy, the EU Innovation Fund and its Carbon Removal Certification work, UK DESNZ, and foundations including the Bezos Earth Fund. Advance purchase commitments from Frontier and Microsoft behave like grants for early deployment, and are worth tracking alongside the calls proper.

This page lists open carbon markets and MRV grants currently tracked by Raise Lens — 1 of them right now, sorted with the soonest deadline first. Every listing has been classified against the sustainability taxonomy rather than matched on keywords, so what appears here is carbon markets and MRV work rather than anything whose description happens to mention it.

One organisation is publishing the carbon markets and MRV grants on this page. Who is funding matters as much as what: eligibility, reporting burden and the realistic timeline to a decision vary far more between funders than between individual calls, which is why the listing names the funder on every opportunity it opens.
