Greenhouse Gas Offset Policy

In 2008, EPRI launched a Greenhouse Gas Emissions Offset Policy Dialogue project. The project informs key constituencies involved in the development of U.S. climate mitigation strategies and policies about GHG emissions offset-related policies and design issues and offers a forum for discussion.
