Enigin - E.ON And MASDAR Set Example To Reduce Carbon Footprint

The German outfit E.ON and the United Arab Emirates' Masdar have joined forces to develop projects aiming to reduce greenhouse gas emissions.

The company's new name is E.ON Masdar Integrated Carbon (EMIC) and its goal is to develop and fund emission reducing projects in the Middle East, Africa and Asia, focusing on oil and gas, but also on power generation, according to a recent statement made by EMIC.

In order to generate income from carbon emissions reduction at industrial facilities, EMIC are looking to set up a carbon credits trade, under a United Nations scheme.

The carbon credits would be traded under the UN's Clean Development Mechanism, which allows developing countries to sell emissions reductions from their energy-intensive industry to help rich countries offset their own contribution to climate change.

EMIC targets technologies with potential to produce a lot of carbon emissions, such as fuel switching for power generation, installation of combined cycle gas turbines at power plants, reduction of gas pipeline leakage and reduction of gas flaring.

Masdar is an initiative owned by the government, and established by Abu Dhabi, to prepare the Emirate for a future energy industry which will be less reliant on oil and gas.

Masdar is already involved in carbon reducing projects in the UAE and Bahrain, and is working to establish a carbon capture and storage network in the UAE.

EMIC's intentions to achieve a reduction of carbon emissions is a great example for companies around the world to follow. At every level of enterprise, effective measures can be implemented to reduce the amount of harmful gases pumped into the atmosphere.

One of these measures is energy efficiency. With companies such as Enigin PLC, businesses all over the world can adopt energy efficient technology in order to save money on their energy bills and contribute in reducing the world's carbon footprint.

Enigin PLC's energy saving products, while reducing the strain put on energy suppliers and limiting the occurrence of power failures, can be very advantageous from a financial perspective for business owners who will be saving money on energy bills as a result (15-20% reduction of energy costs, sometimes more).

Enigin operate world wide and can supply the most advanced technology in their energy efficient products. Enigin cater for all the most basic needs that businesses have, for efficient lighting, air conditioning, motors and refrigeration.

With their wide range of energy saving products, Enigin are able to provide the most effective solution to allow business owners to start saving money from day 1, and to enhance their business' green image.

EMIC is a joint venture to reduce the amount of carbon emissions pumped into the atmosphere, and this action-taking constitutes a environmentally friendly lead to follow.
