REMAINING ODS BANKS = “SIGNIFICANT CLIMATE THREAT”
Montreal Protocol stops at production of CFCs and
other ODS
Kyoto Protocol does not include ODS
ODS produced prior to their phase out deadlines
remain in legal use
In US and many other countries, no controls over
emissions at end of life

IPCC/TEAP 2005-2010
“If over the next two decades the emissions of
all ODS in banks were prevented, the direct,
positive radiative forcing would be equal to
approximately 3-4% of the total radiative
forcing from all anthropogenic GHG emissions
over the same period. “
“Without immediate action, reachable banks
will emit approximately 6 billion tons of CO2
equivalent by 2015--- offsetting and surpassing
the 5 Gt CO2 eq reduction sought during the
first commitment period of the Kyoto Protocol.”

CARBON FINANCE PROVIDES INCENTIVES
Two ODS destruction protocols approved
by CAR (Feb 2010):
1.
CFC refrigerants and foam blowing
agents originating in US (Domestic)**
2.
CFC refrigerants originating in Article 5
countries
• Both protocols require destruction in US
** ARB adopted domestic protocol for AB
32 offsets

ELIGIBILITY FOR DOMESTIC PROJECTS
Location
Project Start Date
Additionality
ODS must be sourced and destroyed in
U.S. or its territories
Destruction within 6 months of project
submission
Legal test: Montreal Protocol and U.S.
law limit production and intentional
release of ODS, but no requirements for
destruction
Performance standard: Destruction rare
Regulatory Compliance
99.99% destruction efficiency
RCRA/Clean Air Act permits

DOMESTIC ODS PROJECT DEFINITION
Only eligible for gases completely phased out of
production:
− CFC-11, CFC-12 refrigerant or foam
− CFC-114, CFC-115 refrigerant
− HCFC-141b foam blowing agent
− Excludes halons
All ODS destroyed within a twelve month period at
a single destruction facility

QUANTIFYING EMISSIONS REDUCTIONS
Emission reductions = [Baseline-Project] emissions
Baseline emissions account for:


Refrigerant-specific leak rates
Foam blowing agent attenuation in landfills
Project emissions include:



Transportation
Energy at destruction facility
Replacement refrigerants
10 year crediting period

PROJECT OPERATIONS AND MONITORING
ODS Origin and Chain of Custody
 Equipment/location
 Container IDs, weight
 Technician IDs
 Custody/Ownership
Transport and transfer of ODS
 Mode of transport, vehicle miles, etc
Preparation for destruction
 Mixing
 Purification
 Mass/composition
Destruction unit operating parameters
 Feedrate, temperature/pressure, continuous emissions,
energy inputs
 99.99% destruction efficiency
Instrument calibrations

Reclaimed ODS is
destroyed, creating a
verifiable and permanent
emission reduction. EOS
Climate is recognized as
pioneer of ODS
destruction in carbon
markets.

EOS CLIMATE – RESULTS DELIVERED
1st company to deliver domestic CRTs
Delivered over 1,500,000 CRTs
Repeated this accuracy 12 times for all eligible
domestic ODS from both commercial & residential
sources.
 Variance <0.0001 by 3rd party analysis
 Destruction to issuance < 3months
Merchandizing and financial partnership with Cargill
Sold to voluntary and compliance buyers seeking
permanent emissions reductions.
