Eastbourne Borough Council
Blended UK + International Portfolio
The credible, defensible route for 186,000 tCO2e. Weights UK-domestic nature recovery as much as UK PIU supply allows, and covers the remainder with high-integrity international credits.
| Component | Tonnes | Rate | Subtotal |
|---|---|---|---|
| UK Standard (PIU) · Woodland Carbon Code + Peatland Code | 62,000 (33%) | £38.00/t | £2,356,000 |
| Enhanced International · Verra VCS + Gold Standard + UNFCCC | 124,000 (67%) | £17.10/t | £2,120,400 |
| Total · 186,000 tCO2e | £4,476,400 | ||
Why this split? UK Woodland Carbon Code and Peatland Code combined issue roughly 500,000 PIU tonnes per year nationally. 62,000 tonnes/year for Eastbourne is ~12% of annual UK supply, which is sustainable without distorting market prices. Attempting the full 186,000 in UK-only would be difficult to source in one year and would push per-tonne prices materially higher.
UK allocation subject to confirmation. All UK PIU volumes are subject to written confirmation of available supply from our project developer partners at time of contract signature. We will confirm exact per-project allocation and vintage before invoicing.
Standalone Options
If Cabinet prefers a single-source portfolio rather than a blend, both single-tier options remain available at the same partnership rates. Full quotes below.
Option 1 · All UK Standard (PIU)
100% of spend supports UK domestic nature recovery via Woodland Carbon Code and IUCN UK Peatland Code, registered on the UK Land Carbon Registry.
| Rate | £38.00/t (public rate £39.99/t, 5% partnership discount) |
| Tonnes | 186,000 |
| Total | £7,068,000 |
Cabinet note: at this volume in one year Eastbourne would take ~37% of annual UK PIU issuance. We recommend phasing over 3 years at 62,000 tonnes/year (~£2,356,000 per annum) to secure allocation without distorting the market.

Option 2 · All Enhanced International
Diversified international portfolio blending reductions with nature-based removals and community co-benefits. Verra VCS + Gold Standard + UNFCCC verified credits.
| Rate | £17.10/t (public rate £17.99/t, 5% partnership discount) |
