Do you sell VERs, but don't want to be burdened with the work on a multitude of transactions? We offer fulfillment services for sellers of VERs who prefer to focus more on projects than retail or even corporate or wholesale clients.
Right now, we fulfill some of the orders for the Environmental Defense fightglobalwarming.com campaign. Orders come through our cart, and we take care of them, but the orders do not originate at our web site.
Beyond that, the Green Trees project sells some of its VERs through our shopping cart. The folks with Green Trees are so busy ramping up their program and they want to focus on that rather than issuing certificates. So, they've asked us to make sure their retail customers get their goods!
It might sound easy, but fulfillment isn't just about printing certificates and sending stickers to customers. It requires careful inventory management and knowledge of the various standards for VERs and their unique requirements. It requires knowing about validation and verifications, and what is a good verifier, and how do you know when you can actually sell the VERs? Finally, we know about contracting and ownership, because you cannot sell what you don't own. We've worked on emission reduction purchase agreements in various voluntary markets as well as in the Koyoto Protocol CDM and JI markets.
How many orders can we handle? Right now, we cannot process zillions, but we are working on that! Within the year, we expect to have the capability to process millions of transactions per day—if that's what the market or your organization wants!
