Abatement Projects and Carbon Offset Programmes

Business can imitate carbon offset programmes (Being verified abatement projects) allowing their customers to pay for carbon offsets sourced by the business on behalf of its customers. Carbon Emissions Exchange can identify approved abatement projects and negotiate on behalf of its clients for the purchase of the carbon offsets they require. With community concern increasing regarding climate change it is apparent that businesses can potentially gain a competitive advantage by offering carbon offsets in this manner Carbon Emissions Exchange can be proactive for its clients in this process.

Abatement projects are those projects and programmes that have been independently verified by the Commonwealth Government's Department of Climate Change Greenhouse Friendly TM initiatives. To gain this accreditation the abatement projects must provide permanent and verifiable greenhouse gas emission reductions or sequestration as required by the Greenhouse Friendly TM program.
