Join the Carbon Point Program to Save Energy, Reduce Greenhouse Gases, and Earn Incentives

[Suncheon=Asia Economy Honam Reporting Headquarters Reporter Lee Hyung-kwon] Suncheon City, Jeollanam-do (Mayor Heo Seok) announced on the 14th that it has provided incentives worth over 75 million won in cash, gift certificates, and Green Card points to 7,097 households who reduced their greenhouse gas emissions by more than 5% during the first half of this year among participants in the Carbon Point Program.

The 'Carbon Point Program' is a program in which households, commercial buildings, and apartment complexes receive incentives based on their reduction rate when they reduce energy consumption of electricity, water, and city gas. It is a program that works with citizens to reduce greenhouse gases.

Incentives are given twice a year, in the first and second halves, with carbon points awarded and up to 100,000 won annually depending on the reduction rate.

Households, apartment complexes, or commercial facilities wishing to join the Carbon Point Program can participate year-round by accessing the Carbon Point Program website to register directly or by applying to the Suncheon City Ecology and Environment Division.

An official from the Suncheon City Ecology and Environment Division said, "Citizen participation is essential to achieve Suncheon City's 2050 carbon neutrality," and added, "We ask for active participation from citizens in the Carbon Point Program, which allows them to reduce greenhouse gases through energy saving and receive incentives."
