This is CDR: Opensource MRV Protocols for CDR with OCP
Accurate Monitoring, Reporting, and Verification (MRV) is one of the biggest challenges in scaling high-quality carbon removal. How can we ensure that carbon removal projects are verifiable, transparent, and tradable at scale? In this episode of This is CDR, we sit down with Thomas Annicq (CEO) and Rio Richardson (CPO) from Open Carbon Protocol (OCP) ( a project of Oneshot.earth) to explore how their open-source, decentralized infrastructure is solving key MRV bottlenecks and enabling a more effective carbon market.
OCP is building a universal, blockchain-based standard for real-time MRV data integration, allowing carbon removal projects to seamlessly verify and issue high-integrity credits.
Join us as we discuss:
✅ How MRV gaps are limiting carbon removal growth
✅ Why open-source infrastructure is key to transparent CDR markets
✅ How OCP’s system enables instant issuance and settlement of verified credits
