There are six types of accounts in the Reserve: 1. Project Developer. An account type for organizations that wish to register projects that generate GHG reductions or removals. This account type can also be used to transfer and manage CRTs. Users of this account type are also able to function as project aggregators or cooperative developers, enabling the management of CRTs on behalf of multiple projects formally registered as part of an aggregation or cooperative, as allowed under certain protocols. 2. Trader/Broker/Retailer. This type of account allows the transfer and management of CRTs, but not registration of projects. 3. Verifier. An account type for verification bodies that have been trained and authorized by the Reserve to verify projects. There is no annual account fee for verification bodies. 4. Reviewer. This account type is only for those who have been asked by the Reserve to serve as a project reviewer. There is no annual account fee for reviewers. 5. Client. This type of account is for any individual or entity that wishes to retire CRTs but not develop its own projects. 6. Project Owner (limited). This account type is designated for use by project participants participating in a cooperative or aggregate according to protocol-specific rules and procedures. This account type allows the registration of projects that are formally part of a cooperative or an aggregation. It is intended for use when the owner of the GHG reduction rights (the Project Owner) is not the entity carrying out project development activities in the registry system. This account type may also be used for limited transfers of CRTs under the terms and restrictions imposed by the relevant protocol and/or aggregation guidance and does not include privileges for retiring CRTs.
