How are suppliers selected?
In order to ensure that NC GreenPower acquires only reputable and certifiable carbon offsets, NC GreenPower has adopted the nine quality criteria for offsets originally developed by Environmental Defense Fund. These criteria are listed below. More detailed information on each of the criteria is available on the NC GreenPower website.
UNICEF suppliers are carefully chosen through a competitive pre-qualification process, on the basis of quality systems/organization, adherence to ethical standards, capacity and financial soundness. UNICEF continuously evaluates its suppliers. Samples of their products are approved before contracts are awarded, and quality checks can also be made before goods are shipped or received. All supplies entering the UNICEF Copenhagen warehouse are carefully inspected according to international standards.
