Sometime back I read that Olympia Tech Park in the city had employed techniques for conserving and utilizing energy efficiently. They had cut down on Carbon emission and adhered to various norms in the industry. This reduction in Carbon emission resulted in Carbon Credits i.e they were emitting lesser Carbon than was allowed so the difference was credited to them. The Credits could be traded or sold to organizations that needed them, for example in the energy industry where emissions were exceeding the allowance.
