Companies earn ERCs by investing in projects that reduce air pollution.
Other companies then buy ERCs to help offset the cost of these projects and to meet their own compliance obligations. ERC trading produces substantial environmental and economic benefits. It fosters projects that economically reduce air pollution, thus easing the burden on consumers of added costs for products or services. On a global scale, ERC trading is proving an effective tool for meeting air quality commitments, particularly where trans-boundary pollution exists. The company earning the credits is required to prove that the emission reductions are real, surplus, verifiable and quantifiable.
