Spotlight on our beyond-value-chain mitigation
dss+ Carbon Project Investments
As part of our beyond-value-chain climate action, we invest in high-integrity voluntary emission reduction (VER) projects that reduce or remove greenhouse gases while driving innovation, efficiency, and sectoral relevance. These projects are reported transparently as contributions and complement our direct reduction efforts. dss+ makes no claims of neutrality or offsetting.
Carbon Investment Methodology
Our project selection follows a disciplined due diligence process, with a balance between reduction and removal projects. We prioritise initiatives independently rated or carrying CCP, Green-E, or EKO Energy labels, ensuring quality and transparency. Investments are aligned with our core sectors and reported separately to avoid double counting.
