The Fertilizer Institute is launching the Verified Ammonia Carbon Intensity program, a voluntary certification of the carbon footprint of ammonia production at a specific facility. It’s the first program of its kind and is designed to provide ammonia consumers seeking to reduce emissions across their supply chains with an independent and certifiable carbon intensity score.
“As agriculture looks to develop more sustainable and resilient supply chains, the Verified Ammonia Carbon Intensity program provides ammonia consumers with certifiable transparency that will allow them to quantify the positive impact using low-carbon ammonia has on their greenhouse gas emissions footprint,” says TFI President and CEO Corey Rosenbusch.
VACI is initiating a 60-day public consultation period for ammonia consumers and stakeholders to provide feedback on the program and its methodology via a survey. VCI intends to redefine the program based on the comments it receives. Ammonia is one of the world’s most widely produced chemicals.
