Environment: First Global Carbon<br />
Finance Program for Transportation<br />
• Monetizing CO 2 reductions is a challenge for truck<br />
fleets<br />
– Cost: A project is cost-prohibitive for all but the largest<br />
fleets<br />
– Regulatory uncertainty: Will transportation be included?<br />
– Quantification and verification: More difficult for mobile<br />
sources<br />
– Complexity: IPCC defaults and actual EPA results<br />
– How to price the CO 2 ?<br />
• Westport recently announced the world‘s first CO 2 finance program for transportation, to be<br />
registered to the Voluntary Carbon Standard (VCS)<br />
• The Westport Carbon Project allows truck operators to realize additional financial value<br />
from the decision to purchase a natural gas vehicle via rebate cheques from Westport<br />
• All voluntary carbon units (VCU) are real, measurable, permanent, additional, conservative,<br />
independently verified, unique, and transparent<br />
• Westport will bundle CO 2 reductions from truck operators that use our engines and re-sell<br />
CO 2 offsets to those wishing to buy them<br />
• This validates the emissions reduction of Westport engines and further supports the<br />
economic and environmental value proposition we offer to customers<br />
