Energy and carbon
Every litre, every cargo, every carbon claim. Proved before it is paid.
Intelicap gives every fuel batch, every imported lot and every crude cargo a passport the whole chain can check. The feedstock behind a zero factor, the emissions behind a border declaration and a producer's methane intensity travel with the goods and carry their own proof.
01 · The problem
A carbon number is written by the party that wants it low.
The party that pays for carbon relies on a figure supplied by the party that gains when it is low. A renewable litre rests on a sustainability paper the fuel supplier cannot check. Imported steel or fertiliser is declared on the producer's own figure. A crude producer's methane performance is certified once a year for the whole company and never reaches the cargo.
Why now
1 January 2027. EU importers of crude oil and gas must show that their producers measure and report methane to standards equivalent to the EU's.
1 February 2027. CBAM certificates go on sale, covering the embedded emissions importers declare for 2026.
1 January 2028. Emissions trading reaches road and building fuels.
Germany stopped new upstream emission reduction projects in 2024 after 45 were classified as suspicious.
02 · The passport
Every claim signed by the party that made it.
The feedstock collector, the biofuel plant, the steel mill, the oil producer and the accredited verifier each sign what they did. A blend names its input lots. The renewable share of a batch, the embedded emissions of a shipment and the methane intensity of a blended cargo are arithmetic anyone can repeat.
The certification body, the accredited verifier or the authority decides what a claim is worth. Intelicap issues no credits and trades no allowances.
Intelicap keeps the proof of each claim. The party with the mandate decides. Intelicap holds no goods, no funds and no rights.
03 · The payment
Every condition met by a signed entry, or nothing moves.
- Feedstock or crude signed. producer
- Emissions verified. accredited verifier
- Handover signed. terminal or carrier
- Report filed. fuel supplier, importer or refiner
- Paid or held. licensed bank
Fuel suppliers, importers and refiners report what the passport shows.

The record warns before the money moves.
Carbon fraud lives in claims nobody can trace. A feedstock lot sold twice, output above what went in, a missing handover signature, a verifier outside its accreditation. On the passport, each one is an entry.
- Detect. A conflict, an odd pattern or a signed flag
- Anchor. The alert becomes an entry
- Hold. Settlement pauses
- Decide. The party with the mandate
- Record. Released or refused, and provable
05 · Who gains
Every honest party wins.
Fuel suppliers
A zero factor you can defend
Every renewable litre traced to signed feedstock, with a receipt per customer and period.
CBAM importers
A declaration with its evidence
The embedded emissions of every lot, signed by producer and verifier.
Refiners and importers
A methane report you can stand behind
Intensity per cargo from signed entries, ready for the EU duties from 2027.
Producers
A low figure that travels
Verified emissions and certified methane intensity stay with every shipment.
Verifiers and inspectors
A signature that travels
What you verify is signed once in your name and read unaltered downstream.
Banks and trade finance
Lend on what you can read
Every receipt, declaration and attestation in one place.
06 · The first step
One real flow, made provable.
One fuel supplier's renewable batches, one CBAM importer's shipments, or one crude cargo from a low-intensity producer to a reporting refiner. Your systems stay where they are, and the passport reads and anchors. A shadow run on a quarter of real data, measured in time to evidence.
