Aviation sustainability consulting · CORSIA MRV + Offsetting
Get CORSIA-ready with audit-grade MRV and a cost-controlled offset strategy.
We help airlines build robust emissions monitoring, strengthen Emissions Monitoring Plans (EMP), and manage verification and offsetting cycles—so you stay compliant, defensible, and commercially prepared.
- Standards-aligned delivery (ICAO Annex 16 Vol IV, verification-ready evidence packs)
- Monthly data QA to reduce rework, verifier findings, and reporting churn
- Cost control through offset strategy + in-sector reduction options (ops efficiency, eligible fuels)
Next step: a short scoping call, then a tailored MRV + verification plan aligned to your operating reality.
Compliance is operational work—miss it, and it becomes a commercial problem.
CORSIA requires defensible emissions data, controlled processes, and an offsetting strategy you can explain to auditors and leadership.
Problem
- Fragmented fuel and flight data, inconsistent methodologies
- EMP written once, then ignored in day-to-day operations
- Verifier findings late in the cycle → costly rework
Impact
- Higher compliance risk and leadership escalation
- Offset volumes and costs become volatile and hard to budget
- Double reporting across schemes (e.g., CORSIA + ETS) drains teams
Solution
Build an MRV system that works like finance: clear controls, traceable evidence, and repeatable monthly checks— then pair it with a procurement strategy for eligible units (and eligible fuels where relevant).
Our approach: designed for auditability and low operational drag.
A repeatable delivery model that reduces verifier findings and protects budgets.
-
Diagnose
Route scope, data sources, controls, and risk hotspots—mapped to CORSIA expectations.
-
Build MRV + EMP
Operationalize the EMP: roles, evidence, QA checks, change control, and training.
-
Run monthly QA
Monthly fuel & CO₂ checks to catch errors early—before verification season.
-
Verify + report
Verification-ready documentation packs; support through verifier questions and closures.
-
Offset strategy
Eligibility screening, procurement plan, governance, and cancellation evidence for the cycle.
Services that move the needle: compliance confidence + cost control.
Pick what you need—or run end-to-end support through the compliance cycle.
MRV system setup
Turn scattered operational data into a traceable MRV workflow—with controls and ownership.
Outcome: fewer surprises at verification.
EMP review & optimisation
Align the EMP to how you actually operate—while staying audit-ready and consistent.
Outcome: less rework, clearer evidence expectations.
Monthly fuel & CO₂ QA
Detect anomalies early (fuel uplift, routing changes, data gaps) with a repeatable checklist.
Outcome: lower end-of-year reporting churn.
Annual Emissions Report support
Evidence packs, reconciliations, and documentation structured for verifier review.
Outcome: faster verification closure.
Verification readiness
Pre-audit drills, control testing, and response playbooks for typical verifier questions.
Outcome: fewer findings and escalations.
Offset strategy & procurement guardrails
Eligibility screening, procurement pathways, governance, and cancellation evidence.
Outcome: controlled cost and reduced integrity risk.
Scheme interaction mapping
Coordinate CORSIA with ETS obligations and route scopes to prevent duplicated effort.
Outcome: leaner reporting and clearer accountability.
In-sector reduction options
Operational efficiency and eligible fuels planning to reduce exposure over time.
Outcome: a compliance plan that supports strategy.
Proof of expertise: what we use, what we deliver, what “good” looks like.
No hype—just the artefacts and controls that stand up to scrutiny.
Standards & alignment
- ICAO CORSIA SARPs (Annex 16, Volume IV) alignment
- Verification-ready evidence structure (roles, traceability, controls)
- Carbon integrity screening informed by program requirements (eligibility + authorizations)
Typical deliverables
- MRV process map + control register
- EMP review pack (gaps, edits, and rationale)
- Monthly QA checklist + exception log
- Annual reporting pack (reconciliations + evidence index)
- Offset procurement strategy & governance note
The VURDHAAN effect
- Audit-ready by design: evidence and controls built into the workflow, not added at the end
- Lower operational drag: a monthly-close rhythm that reduces year-end fire drills
- Cleaner verification: faster responses, fewer findings, and clearer accountability
- Cost governance: offset decisions guided by eligibility, approvals, and traceable cancellation proof

Monitor: make the data defensible
- Source-of-truth mapping (fuel, flight legs, payload assumptions)
- Method selection and consistency rules
- Change control for fleet/route/system changes
MRV maturity slider
Slide to see what “good” looks like—and what to build next.
- Level 1 — Ad hoc
- Level 2 — Documented
- Level 3 — Controlled
- Level 4 — Assured
- Level 5 — Optimised
Level 3 — Controlled
The EMP is operationalized, controls exist, and monthly QA catches errors before verification. Next: strengthen evidence indexing and pre-audit drills.
- Monthly anomaly checks + exception log
- Clear roles/approvals and data handoffs
- Repeatable year-end reporting pack structure
If you’re not sure where you sit, we can run a fast maturity assessment and hand you a prioritized build plan.
Key deadlines & requirements (global signals; local deadlines may vary)
CORSIA is implemented by States, so operator deadlines can differ. These markers help you plan the operating rhythm.
Ready to make CORSIA routine—not a yearly fire drill?
Tell us your fleet/route footprint and current MRV setup. We’ll respond with a clear plan: risks, priorities, and a delivery path that fits your operations.
What happens after you contact us
- We confirm scope (routes, States, reporting obligations, data sources).
- We propose a delivery plan (timeline, responsibilities, and deliverables).
- You get a verifier-ready system with monthly controls and evidence packs.
No obligation. We’ll be direct about what’s needed and what can wait.
