Carbon Offset firm is expanding beyond its web-based consumer market to distribute Verified Emission Reduction certificates through its direct sales forces in the USA, Europe and Asia
BUFFALO, N.Y., Sept. 17 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ — CoolPass, Inc. was recently purchased by and is now a wholly-owned subsidiary of A1 Technology Group, Inc. (Pink Sheets: AOTY) which is traded on the OTC Pink – Grey Markets. The Company has plans to quickly upgrade its listing and commence full reporting.
According to the New York Times, “carbon trading is one of the fastest growing specialties in financial services,” currently a $30 billion market that could grow to $1 trillion within a decade. The U.S. retail trading market alone was estimated at $1.5 billion in 2008, and projected to grow by over 200% per year, according to a recent report by Ecosystem Marketplace, New Carbon Finance.
CoolPass retails carbon offsets to consumers at its online store, and has deployed direct marketing sales forces in Europe and Asia to attract the business and investment communities.
AOTY and its CoolPass subsidiary are lead by Jeffrey Chaskin, a serial entrepreneur and former President and COO of NASDAQ company Ursus Telecom. Chaskin, previously a senior executive at two other publicly traded companies on the OTC and Toronto Stock Exchange, believes “carbon trading is the next market to explode like telecom and internet did in the ’90s, driven by enormous demand which may soon outstrip supply.”
With a Kyoto-like cap and trade soon destined for the US, and the newly legislated Australian compliance market just getting started, the company believes that there may be unlimited growth on the near-term horizon. “Creating a market for carbon as a fungible, tradable commodity has accelerated the growth of renewable energy,” said Chaskin. “Providing the financial foundation for projects that are not yet economically self sustaining. Even if the science is wrong, you cannot ignore the collateral environmental benefits.”
CoolPass maintains an online registry of all of the carbon offset certificates it trades, and tracks the prices of carbon products in both the voluntary and compliance markets around the world.
A1 Technology and its CoolPass subsidiary are in the final phases of training and deploying an international direct market sales force of over one hundred agents, and expect to begin generating significant revenues from those efforts within the next 30 days.
