This framework combines carbon credit generation (MRV + certification) with blockchain infrastructure to create a transparent, verifiable, and investor-grade carbon asset system.
System Architecture Overview
Core Layers:
Field Layer (Data Source)
- Plantation sites (trees, biomass, soil)
- IoT sensors / field surveys / satellite data
⬇
MRV Layer (Measurement, Reporting, Verification)
- Biomass calculations
- Carbon estimation models
- Verification under standards like
Verra or Gold Standard
⬇
Blockchain Layer
- Immutable ledger of:
- Carbon data
- Project milestones
- Credit issuance
- Smart contracts
⬇
Tokenization & Marketplace Layer
- Carbon credits issued as digital assets
- Buyer access (corporates, ESG funds)
⬇
Investor Dashboard Layer
- Real-time tracking
- Yield + carbon reporting
- Financial distribution

3. Blockchain Functions in Carbon Projects
A. Immutable Carbon Records
- Each carbon unit is time-stamped
- Prevents double counting or fraud
B. Digital Project Registry
Stores:
- Plantation data
- Land ownership
- Monitoring reports
- Verification certificates
C. Smart Contract Automation
Automates:
✔ Credit issuance tracking
✔ Revenue distribution
✔ Investor payouts
✔ Forward carbon sales agreements
D. Tokenized Carbon Credits
Each credit can be:
- Fractionalized
- Traded digitally
- Linked to a specific plantation or SPV
4. Integration with Plantation SPV Model
SPV Level
Each SPV:
- Owns carbon rights
- Generates credits
- Links credits to specific hectares
Holding Company Level
Crown Agarwood Group Inc.:
