VIII. Retirement of GHG Reductions

PG&E pledges to "permanently retire all certified GHG reductions procured by the CPT. No retired reduction will be used to meet an existing or future mandated emission standard or emission reduction requirement. Neither PG&E nor its enrolled customers will sell certified CPT-funded GHG reductions."³⁵

We make the foregoing pledge a requirement of PG&E's program. We believe that the emissions reductions should not be double counted for any purpose. PG&E shall not use any reduction from the CPT program to meet any mandatory GHG reduction requirements or voluntary GHG reduction commitments.

³⁵ PG&E Exhibit 1, at 1-6 (emphasis added).
