Kenya launches a carbon registry to boost climate finance and credibility

Kenya has launched a national carbon registry to boost transparency, prevent double counting, and position itself as a hub for high‑integrity carbon credits. The system, aligned with Paris Agreement rules, tracks project approvals, emissions reductions, and credit transfers. With over 80 project proposals already submitted, Kenya aims to attract more climate finance while ensuring communities benefit. Officials say the registry strengthens governance and investor confidence, helping Africa capture a greater share of global carbon market investment.
