The company provides infrastructure for the origination, monitoring, verification, issuance and monetisation of environmental credits from real-world projects. The platform operates as Lagos State's official environmental-credit market infrastructure, with the Lagos State Environmental Protection Agency (LASEPA) providing regulatory oversight. Lagos Carbon supports International Renewable Energy Certificates (I-RECs), carbon credits and other eligible environmental assets generated from renewable energy, energy efficiency, waste and recycling, water, electric mobility, natural capital, biodiversity and emissions-reduction projects. Its platform combines project onboarding and methodology selection with sensor-driven monitoring, reporting and verification, AI-assisted certification workflows, independent verification, digital credit-lifecycle records and access to international buyers.
