The company works closely with industrial companies to identify and develop projects that reduce greenhouse gas emissions and then arranges for the sale and delivery of carbon credits to buyers in compliance and voluntary markets. Camco is delighted to announce that it has signed a contract with Honiton Energy Holdings plc to act as its exclusive carbon development partner through to the end of 2009. The projects under development by Honiton in China are expected to generate up to 3.3 million tonnes of voluntary emission reductions over their first crediting period. The greenhouse gas abatement associated with these projects has been taken into account by Honiton from an early stage. Camco will now assist Honiton to qualify the emissions reductions generated by the projects according to the highest-level international standard applicable, thereby creating maximum value from the carbon opportunity. Honiton Energy is China's fastest-growing foreign renewable energy provider. Honiton currently owns the rights to develop five extensive project sites in China's Inner Mongolia region. With the potential to produce up to several hundred megawatts of power each, the sites could power millions of homes. Honiton is planning to construct 150MW of wind turbine capacity by the end of 2008 with the first turbines becoming operational this year. Clean energy on this scale will prevent several million tonnes of carbon dioxide from being released into the atmosphere. Jeff Kenna CEO, Camco said: 'Inner Mongolia accounts for 40% of China's wind resources. We are very pleased to be supporting Honiton to develop this low carbon resource which has such a great potential'.
