ClimeCo, a global leader in decarbonization solutions, and Zero Circle, an AI-powered climate infrastructure platform, are collaborating to expand access to high-quality carbon credits—and distribute them into new channels through enterprise programs and platforms.
ClimeCo will provide the carbon credits. Zero Circle will curate credit portfolios and manage end-to-end retirement, including retirement records and disclosure-ready reporting outputs. This collaboration is designed to be replicated across industries, enabling clients to offer carbon credits in a simple, transparent way.
Together, the two companies will create a connected pathway where:
- ClimeCo provides access to high-quality carbon credits across a range of project types, supported by strong project documentation and market expertise.
- Zero Circle curates credit portfolios tailored by criteria such as project type, geography, and co-benefits, based on customer needs.
- Zero Circle manages credit retirement and delivers retirement records and audit-ready reporting outputs to support sustainability disclosures and stakeholder communications.
This integrated approach reduces friction between sourcing, portfolio selection, retirement, and reporting—helping organizations move from intent to verified climate action more efficiently, with transparent tracking of credit usage and retirement.
What ClimeCo’s Founder Says
ClimeCo was founded in 2009 as a leader in nitrous oxide abatement and has evolved as a multifaceted provider of global decarbonization and sustainability solutions, reducing more than 40 million tonnes of CO₂e worldwide.“From the beginning, our mission at ClimeCo has been to make a difference each day by turning complex climate challenges into practical, scalable solutions for our clients,” said Dan Linsky, Senior VP, Voluntary Environmental Commodities, ClimeCo.
“This collaboration with Zero Circle is about bringing our respective expertise across both companies and helping to make business-driving sustainability solutions, such as high-integrity environmental credits, easy to access and scale.

What Zero Circle’s Founder Says
Zero Circle is led by founder and CEO Hemanth Setty, who brings over two decades of experience in product, technology, and sustainability-focused innovation. He founded Zero Circle to simplify access to green capital for organizations and SMBs, combining an AI-powered marketplace with ongoing sustainability monitoring and reporting.
“We created Zero Circle to remove the friction between organizations that want to decarbonize and the financial institutions that want to invest in that transition,” said Hemanth Setty, Founder and CEO of Zero Circle.
“Collaborating with ClimeCo, a recognized leader in high‑quality carbon credits and decarbonization solutions, allows us to bring credible, impact‑ready credits to enterprise programs through curated portfolios, transparent retirement, and strong documentation. This is how we help organizations turn sustainability commitments into verified, real‑world outcomes—at scale and with confidence.”
Making High-Quality Carbon Credits Easier to Use at Scale
Mid-market companies and supply chains often lack an easy path to high-quality carbon credits that fit their climate goals—and the documentation needed for credible claims. Zero Circle's platform streamlines portfolio selection, purchasing, and retirement so sustainability teams can move faster with less friction.
ClimeCo’s experience in designing scalable, verifiable projects—from industrial gas abatement to ecosystem restoration—ensures that funded initiatives deliver real, measurable impact.
Through this collaboration, ClimeCo and Zero Circle help organizations:
- Access high-quality carbon credits through curated portfolios that meet rigorous integrity expectations.
- Improve buyer confidence through transparent documentation, third-party verification, and clear retirement records.
- Strengthen disclosure readiness with audit-ready reporting outputs tied to retired credits.
Supporting Credible Claims and Disclosure-Ready Reporting

Through this collaboration, the companies will:
- Co-develop curated portfolios for key sectors such as energy, logistics and transportation, real estate, agriculture, and data centers.
- Provide consistent documentation and retirement records tied to retired credits.
- Deliver reporting outputs that help sustainability teams communicate impact credibly to internal and external stakeholders.
What This Means for Organizations
