Your journey to decarbonization, fully accounted for.

SAME GOAL, BETTER ROute.

TERC turns verified low-carbon transportation energy into a certificate you can own, transfer, and retire — with a documented record proving exactly how it was used. No double-counting. No guesswork.

track it. TERC IT.

"We are delighted to collaborate with the TERC program as it enters this next stage of development. We believe the expanded TERC program strikes the right balance between scalability and integrity, building on its strong foundation in road freight while creating opportunities to accelerate decarbonization more broadly."

Jeroen van Heiningen, Managing Director of 123Carbon

Built for every seat in the supply chain.

Energy Producers

Generate eligible low-carbon transportation energy and issue TERCs.

Transportation Participants

Providers, logistics coordinators, and cargo owners who consume or arrange transport.

Verification Bodies

Independently verify environmental attributes and transportation attribution.

How is TERC Different?

Purpose-built for transportation. Designed for traceability.

Not all market-based mechanisms work the same way. As the Scope 3 market evolves, terms like environmental attribute certificate, credit, ownership, allocation and attribution are increasingly used to describe different approaches.

TERC was designed specifically for transportation, with a framework that clearly distinguishes between the verified environmental attribute — the TERC — and the documented attribution of that certificate to a transportation activity — its TRACE.

We have more in the works. Sign up to be the first to know when more TERC documents are released.

Issuance of TERCs under the expanded framework is expected to begin in October 2026.
