The certificate

One cubic metre. One certificate.

A Water Resilience Certificate (WRC) proves that one cubic metre of water was durably saved, reused or restored in a named basin, in a given year.

02In short

The certificate in brief.

The Water Resilience Certificate is the unit Veracity issues: one verified cubic metre, in one basin, for one year.

  1. 01Issued once, to the project.
  2. 02Can change hands between buyers.
  3. 03Retired once, by whoever makes the claim.

04What makes it credible

Five tests every cubic metre passes.

  1. Measured Against a signed baseline.
  2. Additional Beyond business as usual and legal duty.
  3. Durable Permanence matched to the type of benefit.
  4. Local Tied to a named basin.
  5. Counted once Issued once, retired once.

+Questions

Who verifies?

An independent body accredited under ISO/IEC 17029. Veracity never verifies its own certificates.

Does basin scarcity change the volume?

No. One cubic metre is one cubic metre. Scarcity is disclosed as context and can inform price.

Is a WRC a CSRD compliance instrument?

No. It is verified evidence that supports reporting and defends a voluntary claim.

What does “Level” mean?

The assurance class of the evidence behind each cubic metre. It is never a sum of impacts.

Can a cubic metre be claimed twice?

No. It is issued once and retired once, for one claim.
