Carbon credits · MITECO registry

Registered Spanish carbon credits, from the developer.

Spain's Ministry for the Ecological Transition (MITECO) has run the national carbon registry since 2014. Projects are verified by the ministry itself, entries are public and searchable, and compensation through the registry completes the third stage of the official seal. ClearSky develops reforestation projects inscribed in this registry and sells the credits they produce, from its own projects and inventory, with the compensation filing handled end to end.

The seal has three stages.

Stage 1 · Calculo.

The footprint is calculated and registered with a reduction plan.

Stage 2 · Reduzco.

A downward trend in emissions intensity, over four consecutive registered years.

Stage 3, final · Compenso.

Compensation with registered Spanish absorption credits, from one tonne up.

Why buyers are moving now

Public tenders.

Contracting authorities can now award points for a registered footprint. Where they do, the registry entry is the proof (art. 10, RD 214/2025).

The annual cycle.

Large companies publish their footprint every year, with a five-year reduction plan, the same plan that qualifies a company to compensate.

From September 2026.

EU rules end "carbon neutral" claims on products. Compensating at company level, through an official registry, is exactly what remains.

Compensation is the one stage that requires an external supplier.

94%

of registered footprints have yet to compensate: the seal most companies are still missing.

compensation volumes doubled in the registry's last reported year.

~1M

tonnes available across the whole registry at the last count. Supply is tight.

Three ways to buy

01 · Spot purchase.

Registered credits from our inventory, delivered immediately. We handle the transfer and manage the OECC compensation filing, end to end.

Best for: a first Compenso seal, or closing out this year's footprint.

02 · Forward offtake.

A multi-year supply programme: volume and price locked for years to come, with deliveries scheduled to the buyer's compensation calendar.

Best for: recurring annual compensation, with price certainty.

03 · Project acquisition.

An entire project, acquired before registration. The first tranche of credits arrives at registration, 9 to 12 months after planting; the rest follows the registry's monitoring schedule.

Best for: the largest footprints, at the lowest cost per tonne.

Higher volumes and longer terms attract lower prices, and programmes are sized to the registered footprint, whether that is a few hundred tonnes or a whole project. Prices are quoted on request and are not published.

Annual programme · Plan Compenso

Compensation renewed every year, without the buyer touching the registry. Each year we size the purchase to the registered footprint, execute the transfer, file with the OECC and prepare the seal renewal. One invoice, no administration, and priority allocation on multi-year terms.

Bespoke sourcing

The buyer's land, or land we find.

Where the buyer has land, we diligence it, structure the project and bring it to market. Where land is needed, we screen, secure and develop it.

A named forest.

A defined, geolocated block on a named finca, carrying the buyer's name: a forest that staff and clients can visit.

Tender-ready documentation.

Compensation evidence formatted to the scoring criteria of the bid, returned within 48 hours, every time it is needed.

Financing and structuring.

Staged payments, blended spot-and-forward programmes, and financing, arranged on request.

Buy from the developer.

Sovereign.

Verified by the state. Projects are inscribed with Spain's environment ministry and listed in the national registry: online, and checkable by anyone, including auditors and clients.

Permanent.

Thirty years, and a management plan. Forestry projects carry a minimum thirty-year permanence commitment, a management plan that must evidence the forest survives it, and monitoring at least every five years.

Backed.

A shared registry reserve. Every project cedes a share of its registered absorptions to the registry's guarantee pool, which covers compensations already made if a project later loses forest mass.

Real.

Land, species and a plan that can be visited. Mixed-species planting on land we have contracted ourselves, in Galicia, Asturias and Castilla y León, with a pipeline in Andalucía. Site visits are welcome.

Who is selling: ClearSky develops MITECO reforestation projects across Spain through Clear Sky Carbono S.L. Since 2024 we have turned unproductive land into registered, income-producing carbon assets, and we sell the credits directly from our own projects and inventory.

Common questions

Is there a minimum?

The registry recognises compensation from one tonne. Programmes are quoted against the filed footprint, whether that is a few hundred tonnes or tens of thousands.

How long does it take?

A proposal within 48 hours of receiving the registry entry. From signature, the transfer and the compensation filing are documentary, and run in parallel.

What does the buyer receive?

The buyer receives the transfer agreement, the compensation filing, and the updated registry entry showing the percentage compensated. Audit-grade evidence, not a certificate we printed.

Can more than one year be covered?

Each year's footprint is compensated by its own filing. The tonnes are contracted once; we schedule them across the years required.

Can the buyer hold its own project?

Yes. The registry allows a party that is not the landowner to hold the absorption rights and be the titular. We build it; the buyer holds it.

Will the price be public?

No. The registry records the compensation, not the commercial terms. Price and volume stay between the parties, under NDA on both sides.

We sell from our own projects and inventory, at prices we put in writing. Buyers with an existing provider are invited to compare terms.
