CG HUB:

  • World’s first platform offers transparent trading of gas certified by methane emissions generated during production

  • Designed in association with methane abatement non-profit MIQ

  • Ground-breaking central market to buy and sell with a true understanding of the emissions impact of each transaction

  • Emissions transparency, price discovery, encourage liquidity, and provide a community to drive methane reduction awareness.

  • Designed to provide a market mechanism for incentivizing drastic reductions in global methane emissions

  • Open to all natural gas certified by methane emissions at production

Adapted from the award-winning COMET platform, CG Hub workflow will drive greater trading and emissions transparency:

  • A centralized Hub (dashboard) for bids and offers all members can view

  • Ability to list certification details (level, methane intensity, etc.), attach certificates, all captured in the audit trail

  • Notifications to all members when a new deal is posted

  • Ability to click to execute or begin a bilateral negotiation

  • Receive an automated transaction confirmation.

  • Comprehensive transaction audit logs to help meet a variety of compliance and regulatory standards.

  • Enforces best price methodologies


CG HUB CO₂e Calculator:

 

CG Hub is making it easier and faster to estimate the emissions impact of a proposed transaction in CO₂ equivalency with the introduction of the CG Hub Carbon Dioxide Calculator. This new feature provides the following benefit to each CG Hub transaction:

  • Compares the methane intensity for the volume of certified gas into the equivalent carbon dioxide value

  • Converts the methane intensity for that volume of gas, as if it were not certified

  • Calculates the reduction of equivalent CO₂ that would be realized if the transaction was executed

  • The calculations automatically update as changing terms get negotiated

  • Provides users some options to customize these calculations using firm-specific assumptions

  • The CO₂e values become a permanent part of the audit trail. They are available throughout the platform, can be included in push-button reports, or be exported via API to other systems as necessary
