Carbon Credits

Carbon CreditsMM&A is currently in the process of verifying CMM carbon credits for mining operations located in the Appalachian Basin and the Black Warrior Basin for a U.S. based mining company. MM&A has also been approached by a British firm to potentially verify CMM carbon credits from mining operations located in the Czech Republic and Germany. MM&A is well positioned to assist in these types of projects due to our extensive experience in mining engineering, coalbed methane (CBM) production, and carbon sequestration technologies.

Marshall Miller & Associates (MM&A) is approved by the Chicago Climate Exchange (CCX) as a qualified, independent verifier for carbon credits related to coal mine methane (CMM) and Abandoned Mine Methane (AMM) projects. CCX is the world's first legally binding rules-based greenhouse gas emissions trading system.

Basically, carbon credits can be earned (and traded on the exchange) for documented reductions in methane emissions occurring during the mining process if the gas that would have otherwise been emitted to the atmosphere is rather (1) sold as high quality gas on natural gas pipeline system or (2) is used as mid-quality gas in electricity generation.
