ECOSECURITIES REGISTERS 101st CDM PROJECT
Dublin, 11 March 208: EcoSecurities, a leading company in the business of
sourcing, developing and trading carbon credits, has announced the successful
registration of its 101st Clean Development Mechanism (CDM) project, Tianji
Group Line 1 N2O abatement project, which is located in Lucheng City in Shanxi
province, and has an output of 130,00 tonnes of nitric acid per year.
This project is being developed by EcoSecurities and Tianji Coal Chemical
Industry Group Co. Ltd and utilises a secondary N2O abatement catalyst
technology to reduce N2O emissions which is a strong greenhouse gas (310 times
more potent than CO2). It is expected that this project will generate around
500,000 CERs a year and over 2.5 million CERs through to 2012. In addition to
this project, there are also several other N2O projects currently making their
way through the CDM process.
Belinda Kinkead, Head of Implementation at EcoSecurities, said, "We are very
proud to have successfully registered the Tianji N2O project with the CDM EB.
This is the first successfully registered N2O project in our portfolio and we
have a further 15 projects at various stages of the CDM implementation cycle."
Pedro Moura Costa, President at EcoSecurities, commented, "It is encouraging to
see EcoSecurities continue to expand its market share, having registered 101 out
of 937 registered projects in the CDM pipeline. I am confident that we will
continue to build on these successes throughout 2008."
