Type of project: Landfill Gas Capture/Combustion (carbon removal) 

Legal or NGO standard: Climate Action Reserve 

Project durability period: Permanent 

Independent or 3rd party validation/verification: Ruby Canyon Environmental, LLC 

Annual emissions reductions/removal: 115,191 mtCO2e (January 1 – December 31, 2022) *

_{* This represents the most recent verified annual emissions reduction, taken from the project verification report, dated July 6, 2022} 

Details of “accountability measures” if reversal or shortfall:

Enterprise Mobility carbon offset credits are paid for by rental customers who opt-in to the carbon offset program, and these purchases are matched by the Enterprise Mobility Foundation. The carbon offset credits are for emission reductions that have already occurred and been validated by an independent third-party review. If purchased credits are reversed, they will be replaced by Terrapass with credits of comparable quality.

The pertinent data and calculation methods needed to independently reproduce and verify the number of emission reduction credits issued using the protocol may be found in Section 3.0 of the Project Verification Plan, which is publicly available at Gaston County Landfill Gas Destruction Project | Terrapass.
