Nitric Acid


Protocol used to estimate reductions: Nitric Acid Production Project Protocol Version 2.2


Location of project site: Florida, USA


Project timeline: Current crediting period from May 5, 2022 - May 4, 2032


Project start date: May 5, 2022


Date and quantities of emission reductions (mtCO2e):
 

  • 53,430 mTCO2e (May 05, 2022 – August 28, 2022)
  • 194,626 mTCO2e (August 29, 2022 – May 29, 2023)
  • 122,755 mTCO2e (May 30, 2023 – October 1, 2023)


Type of project: Nitric Acid N2O- Secondary Catalyst


Legal or NGO standard: Climate Action Reserve


Project durability period: Permanent


Independent or 3rd party validation/verification: TÜV SÜD America, Inc


Annual emissions reductions/removal: 94,738 mtCO2e (October 2, 2023 – July 9, 2024) *

* This represents the most recent verified annual emissions reduction.


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 have been validated by an independent third-party review. There is no reversal risk becasue the conversion process is irreversible. If credits generated by the process are found to be in error, 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 the Nitric Acid Validation Report which is publicly available at Nitric Acid I Terrapass.
