Provides an option to mitigate HFC emissions while transitioning to lower GWP alternatives
SAN FRANCISCO — EOS Climate announced it has completed its first project to generate Verified Emission Reductions (VERs), also known as carbon credits, from the reclamation and reuse of hyrdofluorocarbon (HFC) refrigerants. EOS authored the methodology, approved by the American Carbon Registry, to support global goals to limit HFC refrigerants from reaching the atmosphere.
“EOS Climate has a long history of bringing together experts in refrigerants, supply chain management, environmental policy, technology, and environmental commodities to create market-based solutions to climate challenges,” said Joe Madden, CEO of EOS. EOS also originated the successful protocol (ISO 14064-2) for the destruction of ozone depleting substances ultimately adopted by the California Air Resources Board Compliance Offset Program.
