Achieving GHG-emission reductions by acquisition and permanent holding of EU allowances
The German Environment Agency (Umweltbundesamt) evaluated our foundation's approach of the acquisition and subsequent permanent holding of EU allowances.
The experts came to the conclusion that our approach ist valid and opens up an easy opportunity for effecting additional reductions of greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions. In addition, the legal structure of the foundation’s statutes as well as our conscious decision not to nominate a second initiator / approver for our EU registry trading account, ensures that the EU allowances we receive are permanently withheld from carbon markets.
