MEX Partners with Sylvera to Launch Carbon Offset Initiative for 15th National Games' Carbon Neutrality in Macao SAR, China

The Macao International Carbon Emission Exchange(MEX) announces its partnership with leading carbon data and rating company Sylvera to launch a comprehensive carbon offset project solicitation and screening initiative. This collaboration directly supports the 15th National Games' Carbon Neutrality in Macao SAR, China and aligns with the territory’s broader carbon neutrality action plan.

Under this partnership, MEX will identify and evaluate premium carbon offset projects for inclusion in MEX High-Quality Carbon Credits Project Pool, with Sylvera providing independent quality ratings. The initiative ensures rigorous assessment of carbon credits while maintaining the highest standards of environmental integrity for the Games’ carbon neutrality commitments.

All projects must satisfy MEX’s Standardized Carbon Market Framework (SCM) admission criteria and undergo Sylvera’s independent evaluation process. Assessment focuses on four critical indicators: additionality, permanence, measurability, and social and environmental co-benefits. Projects meeting these stringent requirements will gain inclusion in MEX’s curated pool of verified carbon offset projects.

Selected projects will benefit from enhanced market visibility and expanded access opportunities through the project pool. Beyond supporting the National Games’ environmental goals, this initiative contributes to sustainable development across the Guangdong-Hong Kong-Macao Greater Bay Area and establishes Macao as a leader in green event hosting.

MEX and Sylvera remain committed to creating transparent, high-impact carbon credit markets that deliver measurable climate benefits. The formal project solicitation notice will be published shortly through MEX’s official communication channels.
