What is the Standardized Crediting Framework?


The Standardized Crediting Framework (SCF), developed and supported by the Carbon Initiative for Development (Ci-Dev), is a streamlined, country-owned emissions reduction crediting framework. It improves the transparency of national crediting decision-making, reduces transaction costs, and shortens the time it takes to generate emissions reductions, ultimately enabling faster payments.

Following successful pilots in Senegal and Rwanda, Ci-Dev will offer the SCF to the other countries where the Ci-Dev portfolio is active. It will also be offered to all new programs as the portfolio develops.
