Positioning

Find. Finance. Transfer.

Intelligence, origination, and structuring — not a registry, and not a guarantee.

Helexion is not a carbon-credit registry, certification authority, verification body, government authorization body, or exchange. We do not guarantee that any project will receive Article 6 authorization or that credits will be issued. Where certification, validation, verification, MRV or technical carbon development work is required, we route projects to qualified third-party specialists.

MatchTransparent, factor-based matching against buyer and capital criteria — not a black box.
Helexion Carbon Finance is an intelligence, origination and transaction-facilitation service. It is not a licensed broker-dealer, financial adviser, or carbon-credit registry, and nothing on this site is investment, legal, or tax advice. Article 6 regulatory status changes; all country and project data below is dated and sourced, and should be independently verified before any transaction decision.

Screened from 55 identified Kenya candidates (renewable energy, e-mobility, biochar, waste management, industrial efficiency, agriculture and geothermal) against existing infrastructure/climate-project intelligence already in Helexion's data. Projects that don't clear screening aren't listed — see the full methodology in the acquisition-criteria conversation.

🇰🇪Regulatory snapshot

  • FrameworkClimate Change (Carbon Markets) Regulations, 2024 — gazetted 17 May 2024, supplemented by 2025-26 draft/final regulations covering trading, non-market approaches, and the registry.
  • AuthorityNational Environment Management Authority (NEMA), under the Ministry of Environment, Climate Change and Forestry — three-stage No-Objection → Approval → Authorization process.
  • National registryKenya National Carbon Registry launched Feb 2026 (ncr.nema.go.ke) — complements, doesn't replace, Verra/Gold Standard.
  • Bilateral progressSwitzerland and Sweden agreements signed (2025); Singapore still at MoU stage, not yet a full Implementation Agreement.

 

  • Export cap10 MtCO2e cumulative through 2030 (~1.67M tCO2e/yr) — announced August 2026, an intentionally scarce allocation.
  • Priority sectorsRenewable energy, transport, industrial processes, waste management. Forestry and land-use are temporarily excluded pending stronger permanence safeguards.
  • Benefit-sharing40% (land-based) / 25% (non-land-based) of net earnings to community development on public/community land, with FPIC required; private-land projects exempt.
  • Live risk caseKoko Networks (clean cooking, ~$300M invested) entered administration Feb 2026 after Kenya declined its Article 6 authorization request — the clearest evidence the allocation is discretionary, not first-come.
Why this matters for a project owner: Kenya has one of Africa's more advanced Article 6 frameworks — but a genuinely scarce annual export quota means authorization timing and sector fit now matter as much as project quality. Helexion tracks this in real time so a client isn't the next Koko Networks.
