Armenia is the first country in the CIS that began to sell quotas on greenhouse gas emission in atmosphere in the framework of Kyoto Protocol. The first document was signed by Lusakert battery farm, the Environment Protection Ministry and UN Validator.
[...]
The battery farm agreed to sell quotas to Denmark that agreed to build in Lusakert excrement processing and bio-gas production plant (Lusakert Biogaz Plant), and also a factory of ecologically clean fertilizers. The Norwegian government will also participate in this project.
[...]
By preliminary estimation, by selling these quotas Armenia will annually receive $1.6 million.
