Founded in 2015, Aera stands as a market leader and one of the largest suppliers of African environmental commodities. Our mission is to accelerate Africa’s climate transition and support sustainable growth across the continent. We began as a pure player in the voluntary carbon markets and have since diversified, adding new product trading lines: At the heart of global markets with a specific focus on Africa, we identify, source, and monetize environmental commodities to generate new and additional revenues for asset owners. Over the years, Aera has built a unique track record, from pioneering carbon credit transactions in 11 Sub-Saharan countries to developing the largest carbon portfolio on the continent. Every day, we provide our clients and counterparties with best-in-class services and solutions. Our expertise combines technical support, financing structuring, and commercial capabilities to help projects, secure transactions, and optimize flows and values.
