Where deep South Asian sourcing meets Gulf demand for real carbon.
Bangladesh holds some of the world's most under-financed, highest-integrity carbon supply. The UAE — and the broader Gulf — needs verified credits at scale to meet 2030 and 2050 commitments. Terminal Carbon connects them, directly.
The geography of carbon doesn't match the geography of capital.
Most global carbon platforms cluster in London, Singapore and New York — far from where high-quality supply originates and far from where Gulf buyers actually want to procure. We sit in the middle.
Underserved supply
Bangladesh hosts globally significant mangrove and cookstove potential, but most international platforms have no on-the-ground relationships there. We do.
Hard demand in the Gulf
UAE corporates, sovereign desks and net-zero programmes (UAE Net Zero by 2050, COP28 commitments) need verified, high-integrity supply at scale.
Methodology-aligned by design
Every project we surface is screened against our public scoring rubric and aligned to Verra / Gold Standard methodologies before it reaches a buyer.
Pricing transparency
We publish basis benchmarks and disclose commission structure — buyers and developers see the same number. No spread arbitrage hidden in opaque OTC trades.
Four project archetypes — chosen because Bangladesh is genuinely world-class at them.
Mangrove restoration
Coastal blue-carbon at scale, with co-benefits in cyclone resilience and fishery recovery. Aligned to Verra VM0033 and the emerging IPCC blue-carbon guidance.
Improved cookstoves
High-volume, female-led distribution networks with strong MRV potential. Benchmarked to Gold Standard's revised TPDDTEC methodology and the new SBTi guidance.
Methane abatement
AWD rice-paddy programmes and landfill methane capture across the Ganges delta — high-leverage, high-additionality, historically under-financed.
ARR & agroforestry
Smallholder afforestation tied to long-tenure community agreements. Permanence buffer underwriting handled in-house.
The UAE is buying — and wants supply it can stand behind.
The first Gulf country to commit, with interim 2030 milestones requiring high-integrity offsets in addition to abatement.
Cemented the UAE's role as a global climate-finance hub. Sovereign desks and family offices are actively allocating to nature-based supply.
Bangladesh and the UAE signed multiple climate & investment MoUs through 2024 — the diplomatic groundwork is already in place.
How we're building the corridor.
We publish the corridor build-out openly because trust in carbon comes from transparency, not from polished slides.
On-the-ground meetings with Bangladeshi developers, regulators (Department of Environment, Bangladesh Climate Change Trust) and family-office partners in Dhaka & Chittagong.
Onboard 3–5 high-integrity Bangladeshi projects through our scoring pipeline. Publish anonymised diligence summaries.
Match the first corridor cohort to UAE compliance & voluntary buyers under brokered framework agreements.
Standing supply agreements between Bangladeshi project consortiums and a curated buyer panel across the Gulf.
Building this corridor takes developers, buyers and partners.
If you operate a Bangladeshi project, lead procurement at a Gulf corporate, or work in climate finance across South Asia & the GCC — we want to hear from you.
