BKV Corporation secures first Verra CCS credits for Texas project

BKV Corporation has received the first carbon credits issued under Verra’s Carbon Capture and Storage (CCS) methodology for its Barnett Zero project in Bridgeport, Texas. The project captures carbon dioxide separated during natural gas processing, which is then compressed and injected for permanent underground geological storage. This approval establishes a verified benchmark for industrial emissions capture within the energy sector, utilising Verra's VCS framework with methodology VM0049 and module VMD0062. The certification provides a precedent for measuring and crediting permanent geological storage from fossil infrastructure in the voluntary carbon market.
