Certification schemes play a key role in helping businesses, projects, and communities meet sustainability goals in carbon, forestry, renewable energy, agriculture, and management systems. They ensure practices align with national and international standards, promoting transparency and climate action. Examples include:
SPEI
Sertifikasi Pengurangan Emisi Indonesia
Indonesia's national carbon credit certification system is established to quantify and verify emission reductions from climate projects, support Indonesia's NDC under the Paris Agreement and facilitate domestic carbon trading and international offset mechanisms.
ISPO
Indonesian Sustainable Palm Oil
Indonesian Sustainable Palm Oil (ISPO) is a mandatory national certification scheme established by the Indonesian government to ensure palm oil producers comply with legal, environmental, and social sustainability standards.
SVLK
Sistem Verifikasi Legalitas Kayu
Timber Legality Verification (Sistem Verifikasi Legalitas Dan Kelestarian – SVLK) is an Indonesia mandatory certification ensuring timber and wood products meet legal, sustainable, and traceable sourcing standards.
HCV
High Conservation Value
High Conservation Value (HCV) is a framework used to identify, manage, and monitor areas of outstanding environmental and social importance within production landscapes. Originally developed by the Forest Stewardship Council (FSC), the HCV concept is now widely applied across forestry, agriculture, and land-use sectors to ensure responsible management and sustainability.
