Carbon credits

Daphne Technology has received approval for its carbon credit methodology by Gold Standard. The approach targets reducing methane emissions from internal combustion engines using any methane-rich fuel. Methane is a powerful greenhouse gas with a global warming potential (GWP) 28 times that of carbon dioxide (CO 2) in a 100-year period. It is responsible for at least a quarter of current global warming. Unlike CO 2 fossil-origin methane has a much shorter atmospheric lifetime, with a GWP of 82.5 in a 20-year period, so reducing methane emissions can result in quicker climate benefits.
