TORONTO: Zerofootprint and Skymeter partnered today to measure vehicular greenhouse gas emissions. Initial applications focus on highly accurate measurement of corporate and individual CO2 vehicle emissions. The service will combine Skymeter’s extremely reliable GPS meter and Zerofootprint’s Carbon Engine. The precision and scientific accuracy of the application heighten the market value.

“Our partnership provides solutions for a low carbon economy,” said Ron Dembo, CEO, Zerofootprint. “Our new offering will accurately measure carbon relating to travel and thereby help manage the risk associated with vehicle emissions.” Today’s announcement coincides with the presentation How Green is Your Tolling, recently delivered by Skymeter CTO, Preet Khalsa, at a transportation conference in Halifax. The presentation focused on an incentive-based tolling system that uses tax credits and other rewards for those who reduce their driving.

“Zerofootprint’s software and our metering system offer unprecedented opportunities to quantify carbon emissions from land transport. Together we enable cities and organizations to reduce transport demand and monetize emissions savings,” said Kamal Hassan, CEO of Skymeter.

Hassan and Dembo look forward to announcing partnerships with both corporate and municipal clients in the near future.

Skymeter Corporation is a Toronto based data-services operator. The organization enables location-based payments using financial-grade GPS telematics. Billing-delivery services include time, distance and place, or TDP, metering for road use, parking and PAYD insurance. Metering services incorporate methodologies for both privacy and anonymity to ensure motorists enjoy complete privacy while traveling and absolute confidentiality of their trips, equivalent to an anonymous, in-car cell-phone that automatically pays for services based on actual usage.

It provides software and services to individuals, governments, universities, and corporations to measure and manage their carbon footprint and engage employees and citizens worldwide in combating climate change.
