Carbon Management of Energy Supply, Business Processes, and Supply Chains

Carbon management involves systematically reducing greenhouse gas emissions across business processes and supply chains.

There is no single solution. Companies can change their energy supply, use new energy sources, meet regulatory obligations under emissions trading schemes, and address remaining emissions through verified climate protection projects.

MB Energy combines these different approaches into an integrated suite of solutions.

New Energy - Carbon Management Through New Energy Sources

The transition to new energy sources can be a key component of a carbon management strategy.

Within its New Energy portfolio, MB Energy develops products and supply solutions for various industries and applications.

    BEHG / nEHS

    National Emissions Trading

    The National Emissions Trading System (nEHS) requires companies to surrender the appropriate emissions allowances.

    MB Energy provides support in procuring allowances and meeting regulatory requirements under the national emissions trading system.

  • eu-ets-adst-887942926

    EU ETS

    European Emissions Trading

    The EU Emissions Trading System (EU ETS) is based on tradable European Union Allowances (EUAs).

    One EUA entitles the holder to emit one metric ton of CO₂ equivalent and is used to meet regulatory obligations under the European emissions trading system.

    MB Energy provides support with the procurement of EUAs and with compliance requirements under the European Emissions Trading System.

Carbon Credits

Carbon Offsetting for Remaining Emissions

Not all emissions can be avoided or reduced in the short term.
Carbon credits can enable companies to offset remaining emissions through verified climate protection projects.
MB Energy provides support in selecting, procuring, and retiring recognized carbon credits.

What's the difference?

Carbon Credits

Carbon credits represent a verified avoidance, reduction, or removal of one metric ton of CO₂ equivalent from a climate protection project.
They are primarily used in the voluntary carbon market.

Carbon Offsetting

Carbon offsetting refers to the use and retirement of carbon credits to address remaining emissions as part of a climate strategy.

Emissions Allowances

Emissions allowances, such as EUAs or nEHS allowances, are used to meet legal obligations under national or European emissions trading schemes.

FAQ

What does carbon management mean?

Carbon management refers to the gradual reduction of greenhouse gas emissions in energy supply, business processes, and supply chains.

How can companies reduce their CO₂ emissions?

Among other things, companies can change their energy supply and energy sources, optimize processes, and adopt new fuel and raw material supply chains.

What role does New Energy play in carbon management?

New energy sources such as methanol, ammonia, sustainable aviation fuel (SAF), and hydrogen can help supplement or, in the long term, replace existing fossil fuel-based energy systems.

What are emission allowances?

Emissions allowances, such as EUAs or nEHS allowances, are used to meet legal obligations under national or European emissions trading schemes.

What is the EU ETS?

The EU Emissions Trading System (EU ETS) is based on tradable European Union Allowances (EUAs).
One EUA entitles the holder to emit one metric ton of CO₂ equivalent and is used to meet regulatory obligations under the European emissions trading system.
