EMISSION REDUCTION TRADING SYSTEM AND METHOD

摘要

An emission reduction trading system and method can include a registry (12) that stores emission allowance and offset holding information for participants in a greenhouse gas emissions market and a trading platform communicatively coupled to the registry (12) and enabling trades of emission allowances and offsets by participants. The method of conducting trades among participants includes establishing baselines and reduction levels (403), obtaining emissions information including emissions allowance and offset information (1440), determining on an individual participant basis required purchases and allowed sales, and managing trades among participants to meet the determined required purchases and allowed sales.
