SINAI and Valor Carbon Partner to Accelerate Profitable Decarbonization in Central Asia

Collaboration brings together carbon accounting technology and climate finance to support companies in Kazakhstan and the broader region

SINAI Technologies, the AI-powered carbon management and ESG compliance platform, has partnered with Valor Carbon, a UK-based climate finance and carbon markets advisory firm, to bring a new decarbonization offering to companies in Central Asia.

This partnership enables businesses in the region—particularly those operating under the Astana International Financial Centre (AIFC) and listed on the Kazakhstan Stock Exchange (KASE)—to take a balanced, transparent, and financially sustainable approach to emissions reduction: reduce first, offset the rest.

Combining SINAI’s integrated software platform with Valor Carbon’s project finance expertise, the joint solution helps companies:

●      Track and reduce emissions in line with ESG disclosure requirements

●      Understand the financial impact of climate strategies

●      Invest in high-quality, verified offset projects with confidence

💬 Rocco Huesch, Co-Founder & CEO at Valor Carbon:

“In building this partnership, we want to help companies in Central Asia not only reduce emissions, but do so in a way that is transparent and aligned with emerging regional ESG frameworks. With SINAI’s tools, firms will better understand how to invest in high‑integrity carbon projects, ensure real impact, and meet both voluntary and regulatory demands—without placing undue burdens on economic growth.”

‍

💬 Jess Waldeck, CEO at SINAI:

“This partnership brings SINAI’s platform to a region that’s rapidly advancing in climate finance and ESG disclosure. Working with Valor Carbon, we’re enabling companies in Central Asia to take a data-driven approach to profitable decarbonization through reducing emissions strategically, planning with financial clarity, and making credible offset investments when needed.”

Locally, Valor Carbon has appointed Nurzhan Aspandiyar as Head of the Central Asia region to lead engagement with regional companies, investors, and regulators.

As Kazakhstan advances its national sustainability goals—including carbon neutrality by 2060—and enforces mandatory ESG disclosures through AIFC’s Astana Financial Services Authority (AFSA), this partnership is designed to empower companies to align with evolving regulations and unlock new sources of green capital.

●      The AIFC is central to Kazakhstan’s economic diversification strategy and aims to become a financial bridge between East and West.

●      The Green Finance Centre (GFC) at AIFC has led efforts to develop the Kazakhstan Green Taxonomy and support green bonds, climate finance instruments, and ESG frameworks.

●      In 2024, ESG disclosure guidance became mandatory for regulated financial institutions under AIFC’s jurisdiction.
