EAC · THE CERTIFICATE BEHIND GREEN TRANSPORT

Turn a verified emission reduction into a certificate that can be bought and sold.

Electric trucks, SAF and marine biofuels reduce transport emissions. An EAC verifies that benefit and records which customer can claim it.

A five-minute guide
02 · WHY IT MATTERS

A cleaner journey becomes a service only when the customer can prove it.

Changing the fuel creates a reduction. But green transport also needs a trusted record of who bought that reduction and who may report it. The EAC connects those two sides.

  1. 01Transport creates the reduction.Ships switch to biofuel, aircraft use SAF, and road fleets move from diesel to electric or hydrogen.
  2. 02The EAC assigns the benefit.The measured and verified reduction becomes a certificate tied to a specific customer’s transport.
  3. 03Both sides receive value.The shipper receives Scope 3 evidence. The carrier turns its decarbonisation investment into a new service revenue stream.
03 · A MARKET ALREADY IN MOTION

Major logistics, aviation and ocean carriers already sell commercial services built on this model.

The labels vary — insetting, green freight, ECO Delivery — but the structure is consistent: verify the benefit of low-carbon fuel and allocate it to a customer’s transport.

AIR · OCEAN

DHL GoGreen Plus

An insetting service that allocates the environmental value of SAF, biofuel and other low-carbon fuels to customer shipments.

OCEAN

Maersk ECO Delivery

Marine-biofuel reductions are allocated to customer cargo with customer-specific reduction certificates.

AIR

Kuehne+Nagel

The environmental value of SAF is allocated to air-freight customers through Book & Claim.

AIR

Emirates

SAF use and corporate-customer participation programmes connect lower-carbon fuel with air-transport demand.

SHIPPER · OCEAN

Amazon — Maersk

A public case connecting purchased low-emission ocean freight with GLEC-based accounting and customer reduction certificates.

These companies are market benchmarks, not partners or customers of LCS.

04 · EVERY TRANSPORT MODE

Ships, aircraft and trucks: an EAC can start wherever the fuel changes.

The mode changes, but the questions do not: where did the reduction happen, and who bought its benefit?

A vessel receiving lower-carbon marine fuel in port
OCEAN

Ocean · biofuel bunkering

Where the reduction happens
On voyages where a vessel is supplied with sustainable biofuel instead of conventional fuel
Who buys the certificate
A shipper seeking Scope 3 evidence for purchased ocean freight
An aircraft being fuelled with sustainable aviation fuel
AIR

Air · SAF

Where the reduction happens
When SAF is supplied at an airport and used in actual flight operations
Who buys the certificate
A company reducing Scope 3 from air freight or business travel
An electric truck charging at a logistics depot
ROAD

Road · electric and hydrogen

Where the reduction happens
On real transport services where electric or hydrogen vehicles replace diesel vehicles
Who buys the certificate
A shipper or retailer needing Scope 3 evidence for delivery and distribution
05 · BOOK & CLAIM

Separate the fuel journey from the certificate journey, then deliver the benefit where it is needed.

A shipper cannot always choose the exact aircraft or vessel carrying its cargo. Book & Claim verifies a reduction where low-carbon fuel is actually used, separates its environmental value into a certificate, and assigns that value to the buying customer.

It works like a renewable-energy certificate. Your building may not have its own solar panels, but it can buy the verified environmental value of renewable power generated elsewhere on the grid.
A

Physical flow · the transport

  1. 01Supply low-carbon fuel where ports, airports or depots can support it.
  2. 02Operate the ship, aircraft or vehicle on a real transport service.
  3. 03Measure and verify fuel use and the resulting reduction.
B

Certificate flow · the claim

  1. 01Record the verified environmental value in a certificate.
  2. 02Allow a customer on another route to purchase the required benefit.
  3. 03Assign it to that customer and prevent the same reduction from being used twice.

Built on the Smart Freight Centre Book & Claim framework: physical and certificate flows stay separate but are connected by one verification trail.

06 · LCS INFRASTRUCTURE

Before a certificate can be trusted, the measurement must be trusted.

If the baseline and the new transport emissions cannot be trusted, neither can the certificate. LCS is preparing standards-based infrastructure connecting measurement, verification, issuing-body integration and attribution records.

MEASURE

Measurement aligned with ISO 14083

A measurement system with SFC verification of ISO-14083 conformity records the evidence behind each transport service and reduction.

REGISTRY · NDA

123Carbon Registry integration

Issuing authority rests with SFC and 123Carbon. LTS is reviewing integration as the verification and administration layer.

NDA 12 May 2026 · Issuance and trading begun — a first in Korea
MARKETPLACE · NDA

Carboninsets Marketplace integration

Marketplace integration for the trading and attribution path of verified reductions is under review.

NDA 25 May 2026 · Issuance and trading begun — a first in Korea
ADDITIONALITY

Honest additionality deductions

Reductions already supported or counted elsewhere are deducted, leaving only the additional benefit.

LCS has begun its EAC issuance and trading service — a first in Korea. NDAs are in place with the 123Carbon Registry and the Carboninsets Marketplace as operations expand together.

The same EAC tells a different story depending on where you stand.

Now that the concept is clear, see what changes from your side of the transaction. Each page follows the problems and the order in which they get solved.
