FAQs

An offset represents the reduction, removal or avoidance of GHG emissions, measured in tonnes of CO2 equivalent (tCO2e) from a sector or region not subject to a regulatory requirement. By cutting emissions beyond what is required, offsets play an important role in reducing net CO2 in the atmosphere.

Offsetting must demonstrate actual emission reductions compared to what would have other wise happened. They must also ensure emissions are not simply released at a later date or are displaced elsewhere. The essential criteria used in greenhouse gas offset programs include:

Real: Offsets must represent real emission reductions that have already occurred (ie, the reduction is not projected in the future)

Additional: Offsets must represent emission reductions that are in addition to what would
have occurred other wise.

Permanent: Offsets must represent emission reductions that are non-reversible or must
typically be sequestered for a specific number of years in the case of carbonbio-sequestration projects.

Verifiable: Sufficient data must be collected to ensure emission reductions can be verified by an independent auditor using established protocols and methodologies.

Quantifiable: Emission reductions must be reliably measured or estimated, and capable of
being quantified.

Enforceable: Offset ownership is undisputed and enforcement mechanisms exist to ensure
that all program rules are followed and the market’s environmental integrity is maintained.

The first step is to look at all sources of emissions. These can be divided into three categories.

Scope 1 covers direct GHG emissions, such as from boilers, vehicles or equipment

Scope 2 covers indirect GHGs such as emissions from electricity purchased for heating and cooling buildings.

Scope 3 covers emissions up and down the value chain, like products purchased from suppliers, or from a company’s products when customers use them.

The first step for any GHG emitter is to reduce emissions as much as possible. However, it may be too costly to reduce GHGs using technology or operational changes alone. Purchasing carbon offsets is the best way to counterbalance these emissions.

When you purchase fuel from Bluewave Energy, it’s easy to offset carbon emissions at the same time. We offer offsets for all your gasoline, diesel, or propane purchases and you can offset anywhere from 5% to 100% of your emissions.

We offer a range of offsets to fit your sustainability strategy. You can choose based on location, project type, vintage, volume, or price.

All our offsets are independently audited and listed on industry registries including Verra, American Carbon Registry, Climate Action Reserve, and more.
