aDryada and GO2 Markets launch innovative offtake process to broaden access to high-integrity carbon removals 

  • An offtake process designed to simplify corporate access to high-integrity carbon removals
  • The process aims to broaden participation in long-term carbon removals purchasing beyond the market’s largest and most sophisticated buyers
  • Initial offering will provide access to five separate batches of 200,000 Carbon Removal Units (CRUs) from the Yopo reforestation project in Colombia, expected to remove 10.8 million tonnes of CO₂ over 40 years

Paris, 8 June 2026 – aDryada, a developer of investment-grade natural infrastructure assets, today launches an innovative offtake process organised with commercial platform GO2 Markets for its Yopo carbon removals project in Colombia.

The process is designed to simplify and standardise the purchasing of high-quality carbon removals for corporate buyers seeking long-term supply to support net zero strategies.

To date, access to large-scale, high-integrity carbon removals projects has been largely limited due to fragmented procurement processes, complex diligence requirements and limited internal expertise across the market.

The Yopo offtake process aims to broaden participation by providing qualified buyers with a structured commercial framework, standardised documentation and centralised project diligence. In doing so, the initiative seeks to introduce practices more commonly associated with compliance markets, particularly around transparency.

Through the process, buyers will be able to submit offers for long-term offtake agreements covering delivery of up to 1 million Carbon Removal Units (CRUs) between 2030 and 2040. The offering will be organised across five separate 200,000-CRU batches, designed to broaden participation beyond the market’s largest buyers.

Located in Colombia’s Vichada Department at the edge of the Amazon basin, Yopo is a large-scale mixed native species reforestation initiative designed to deliver durable, scalable and high-integrity carbon removals alongside significant environmental and social co-benefits. The project will restore approximately 18,000 hectares between 2026 and 2030 using a mix of 10 native tree species and is expected to remove approximately 10.8 million tonnes of CO₂ over a 40-year crediting period.

The project also benefits from significant operational experience in the region. aDryada’s project partner, BaumInvest, has a substantial track record in Vichada, having planted more than 6,600 hectares there since 2023. This experience provides a strong foundation for project delivery, planting design, ecological implementation, and the assumptions underpinning the project’s carbon modelling.

The offtake process includes:

  • a defined commercial timeline intended to accelerate decision-making;
  • an investment-grade data room;
  • pre-issuance project assessment and ratings processes, including independent evaluation by Sylvera;
  • scheduled technical Q&A sessions and field visits; and
  • standardised documentation designed to streamline diligence workflows.

The initiative will address one of the carbon market’s key structural challenges. While a small number of large corporates have developed capabilities to assess complex carbon removal transactions, most companies continue to rely on multiple advisers and intermediaries, often resulting in lengthy, fragmented and resource-intensive procurement processes.

Historically, many carbon removal transactions have also remained bilateral and relatively opaque. The Yopo purchasing process introduces a more standardised and transparent commercial framework intended to simplify access for buyers while improving visibility and consistency for developers and investors alike.

By standardising key elements of diligence and procurement, the partners aim to broaden access to high-integrity removals across a wider range of market participants and contribute to the development of more scalable market infrastructure for long-term carbon removals.

Fabio Ferrari, Founder and CEO of aDryada, said: “The removals market is entering a new phase. Buyers are increasingly competing for a limited pool of genuinely high-integrity projects, while expectations around diligence, transparency and long-term delivery continue to rise.

“With this allocation process, we are applying standards more commonly associated with infrastructure and institutional finance to the carbon removals market, while helping build the commercial architecture needed to make high-quality removals accessible to a broader group of serious corporate buyers.”

Julien Neel, Partner at GO2-markets, said: “We are proud to be a pivotal partner in bringing natural infrastructure assets to market. These represent a future-proof solution, one positioned at the convergence of Voluntary and Compliance markets. Equally exciting is the ability for corporations to secure forward offtakes through a single, dedicated platform. With 13 years of experience in energy and climate solutions, this feels like a defining moment, one that finally brings institutional rigour and transparency to nature-based solutions at scale. It is a great honour to represent and promote the best actors in the field.”

This project reflects aDryada’s investment-grade infrastructure approach. This involves securing long-term land tenure, structuring projects through dedicated investment vehicles, and establishing predictable revenue streams through long-term carbon credit offtake agreements with corporate buyers.

By applying the governance, financing structures and contractual certainty typically found in infrastructure assets, aDryada reduces many of the risks that have historically limited large-scale nature-based projects. This enables institutional investors to finance capital-intensive ecosystem restoration while creating a reliable supply of high-integrity carbon removal credits and delivering long-term benefits for climate, nature and local communities.
