EPS recognized as a leading provider of measurement and reporting solutions that meet independent standards for disclosing greenhouse gas emissions
Costa Mesa, CA – July 14, 2010 – EPS Corp today announced that the company has earned accreditation by the Carbon Disclosure Project (CDP) as a provider of software products that meet the CDP’s rigorous standards. With this accreditation, EPS is now an official CDP Carbon Calculation partner, making it one of only five companies worldwide qualifying for this designation.
To achieve this distinction, EPS underwent a thorough testing and review of the carbon data collection and calculation methods in its xChange Point® software, administered by the Greenhouse Gas Management Institute, an independent third-party authority on greenhouse gas accounting, auditing and management. This accreditation verifies xChange Point’s compliance with the Greenhouse Gas Protocol for collecting and calculating GHG emissions – the most widely used international accounting standard for business leaders to understand, quantify, and manage carbon emissions.
In addition to offering software that helps industrial manufacturers accurately track and report carbon emissions, EPS Corp is unique in offering a complete range of services for identifying, implementing and monitoring energy and carbon reduction initiatives to enable these businesses to achieve their sustainability goals. Beyond accurately quantifying data needed for GHG Protocol Scopes 1&2 carbon emissions reports, xChange Point delivers real time enterprise-wide energy usage information at the plant and sub-system level, identifies some of the greatest areas for improvement with the shortest payback periods and tracks a company’s success at achieving those efficiency measures. EPS also offers a variety of financially compelling solutions that help manufacturers shift to renewable energy when appropriate.
“We are very pleased to be recognized by the CDP as a leader in helping companies track, report and manage greenhouse gas emissions according to the industry’s highest independent standards” said Jay Zoellner, Chief Executive of EPS Corp. “This certification of our methods and xChange Point software is further indication of the leading position that EPS is taking to help industrial customers measure their carbon emissions and implement practical solutions that reduce their energy usage and carbon footprint.”
“CDP is delighted to add EPS Corp as a Carbon Calculation Partner” said Joanna Lee, Chief Partnerships Officer of the Carbon Disclosure Project. “Their xChange Point software has undergone testing by a third party to ensure it meets our criteria for performance and we are pleased to recommend this tool through our Carbon Calculation program.”
