Alberta Emissions Offset Registry
The standard unit for all GHG credit registries is, one carbon offset credit (emission offset) represents a one-tonne reduction or sequestration in greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions expressed in CO2e, resulting from an independently verified project activity. Offset projects range in scope and involve implementation of new management practices, technology and/or control systems that reduce or remove emissions of a given process. All projects listed on the AEOR must meet system requirements as outlined in the Standard for Greenhouse Gas Emission Offset Project Developers.
