Abstract
A system incentivizing greenhouse gas sequestration is provided having a greenhouse gas receiving station, a greenhouse gas storage system having a sequestration potential, a signal indicative of the sequestration potential of the greenhouse gas storage system received by said greenhouse gas receiving station, the greenhouse gas receiving station determining a storage cost based on a greenhouse gas and the signal indicative of the sequestration potential, the greenhouse gas receiving station determining a renewable energy credit based on the signal indicative of the sequestration potential of the greenhouse gas storage system.

A system incentivizing greenhouse gas sequestration, comprising:
- a greenhouse gas receiving station;
- a greenhouse gas storage system having a sequestration potential;
- a signal indicative of the sequestration potential of the greenhouse gas storage system received by said greenhouse gas receiving station;
- the greenhouse gas receiving station determining a storage cost based on a greenhouse gas and the signal indicative of the sequestration potential;
- and
- the greenhouse gas receiving station determining a renewable energy credit based on the signal indicative of the sequestration potential of the greenhouse gas storage system.
