PDRA Expertise
Mangrove Carbon Projects in Senegal
Mangrove ecosystems are among the most effective for carbon sequestration (blue carbon). PDRA Consulting supports carbon project development in Senegalese coastal areas.
Restoration and carbon sequestration
We contributed to an AFOLU carbon project aiming to restore 30,000 hectares and sequester 3 MtCO₂eq, demonstrating our ability to structure large-scale projects.
Blue carbon Senegal
Blue carbon refers to carbon captured by marine and coastal ecosystems. In Senegal, Saloum and Casamance mangroves offer significant potential for carbon offset projects.
From study to financing
PDRA operates across the value chain: ecological diagnosis, restoration plan, carbon methodology, financial structuring and access to voluntary or compliance carbon markets.
Why PDRA Consulting?
Our expertise combines marine ecology, ecological restoration, carbon assessment and development project structuring — a rare profile in the West African market.
Frequently Asked Questions
What is a mangrove carbon project? ▼
It is a project aiming to restore or preserve mangroves to sequester CO₂, generating carbon credits while preserving biodiversity and local livelihoods.
What is blue carbon? ▼
Blue carbon is carbon stored in coastal and marine ecosystems (mangroves, seagrasses, salt marshes). These ecosystems sequester carbon faster than terrestrial forests.
Can PDRA develop a complete carbon project? ▼
Yes, from feasibility study to certification, including management plan, MRV monitoring and carbon or climate finance sourcing.
