A-Gas V10
A-Gas generates compliance credits through the safe destruction of Ozone Depleting Substances (ODS), aligning with established international registries such as Verra, CAR, and ACR. By recovering and reclaiming refrigerant gases, A-Gas not only prevents harmful emissions but also reduces the demand for virgin gas production, thereby mitigating the associated emissions from manufacturing and shipping processes. This initiative supports multiple UN Sustainable Development Goals, particularly Climate Action, as well as goals related to Industry, Innovation, Infrastructure, Sustainable Cities, and Responsible Consumption. Through these efforts, A-Gas plays a significant role in promoting sustainable environmental practices and addressing climate challenges.

Project Overview
A-Gas offers compliance credits, which are generated from the safe destruction of Ozone Depleting Substances (ODS). Our methodology development and project verification are carried out under internationally recognized registries, such as Verified Carbon Standard (VERRA), Climate Action Reserve (CAR), or American Carbon Registry (ACR).
Our carbon projects are aligned with several UN Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), primarily Climate Action. A-Gas directly prevents harmful emissions and reduces the need for virgin gas production through our recovery and reclamation of refrigerant gases. By displacing the need for further virgin production, emissions associated with new product manufacturing and trans-oceanic shipping are reduced.
Considered collectively with the avoided emissions from capturing the original gas, reclaimed refrigerants positively impact other SDG goals, including Industry, Innovation, and Infrastructure (9); Sustainable Cities and Communities (11); Responsible Consumption and Production (12); and Climate Action (13).
