Blockchain-Based Quantified Emissions Tokens Enable Compliance Pathways

ATLANTA and NEW YORK, Nov. 28, 2025 /PRNewswire/ — BurCell^® Technologies, Inc., a leader in innovative waste-to-energy solutions, announced today its partnership with EarnDLT, Inc. to digitize and verify environmental attribute certificates for alternative solid fuel and renewable natural gas (RNG) produced at its facilities. Through EarnDLT’s Greentruth platform, BurCell will issue blockchain-based Quantified Emissions Tokens (QETs) that serve as compliance reduction mechanisms for natural gas, coal and other energy sources.

The collaboration marks a significant advancement in environmental attribute tracking and trading, leveraging EarnDLT’s proprietary methodology to transform the BurCell System’s carbon-negative fuel production into verified, tradeable digital certificates. Each QET represents one MMBtu of thermal energy with precise, verified carbon intensity measurements expressed in kilograms of CO2 equivalent per MMBtu following the most stringent GREET model.

“This partnership enables us to provide our customers with transparent, blockchain-verified environmental benefits from our innovative waste diversion processes,” said Ron Barmore, CEO of BurCell Technologies. “EarnDLT’s methodology creates a clear compliance pathway for delivering our environmental attributes through voluntary and regulatory programs.”

BurCell Technologies proprietary BurCell System transforms municipal solid waste into renewable feedstock at its commercial scale operating facility in Cordele, GA, cost-effectively diverting up to 75% of processed waste and more than 90% of the methane generating organics from landfills. BurCell Technologies has another facility planned for near-term construction in South Fulton, GA. The company’s processes generate alternative solid fuel and renewable natural gas with carbon intensity between -65 and -110 kgCO2e/MMBtu, achieving net-negative emissions through avoided landfill methane and waste diversion credits.

EarnDLT’s Greentruth platform provides immutable record-keeping through blockchain technology, ensuring transparent chain-of-custody documentation and preventing double-counting of environmental benefits. The platform’s verified methodologies align with ISO standards and integrate with California’s Low Carbon Fuel Standard requirements, enabling producers to access premium markets for low-carbon fuels.

“BurCell Technologies’ innovative approach to waste-to-fuels perfectly demonstrates how our Quantified Emissions Token framework can deliver precise environmental impact accounting,” said Aaron Lohmann, CEO of EarnDLT. “Our proprietary methodology provides the verification rigor needed to support regulatory compliance while offering market flexibility through our Greentruth marketplace.”

The partnership will roll out in phases, with Environmental Attribute Certificates for alternative solid fuel becoming available in early 2026, with volumes more than 400,000 MMBtu annually in 2027, with renewable natural gas certificates becoming available in 2027 as well. Total volume of certificates is projected to exceed 1,000,000 MMBtu in 2028.

The QET methodology incorporates dynamic carbon intensity calculations that account for transportation emissions based on actual delivery endpoints, providing buyers with accurate lifecycle assessments. This precision enables natural gas and coal consumers to offset their Scope 1 and Scope 3 emissions by pairing conventional fuels with verified negative-carbon certificates from BurCell’s production.

About BurCell Technologies, Inc.

BurCell Technologies deploys innovative technology to transform municipal solid waste into renewable resources, empowering communities and waste management partners with sustainable solutions. The company’s proprietary BurCell System creates feedstocks for renewable natural gas production, gasification, and solid fuel manufacturing while recovering valuable recyclable materials. Headquartered in the Atlanta, Georgia area, BurCell operates a commercial facility in Cordele, Georgia and is starting construction soon on a project located in South Fulton, GA and has several other projects in development.

BEIJING, Nov. 28, 2025 /PRNewswire/ — Breton Technology unveiled its latest generation of purpose-built autonomous electric mining trucks, 9M145E, marking a significant step toward reshaping the ESG landscape of global mining operations. The new platform, designed from the ground up without a driver’s cabin, integrates electrification, autonomy, and intelligent dispatch into a unified system. Beyond technological progress, the launch reflects a broader industry transition: mining companies are increasingly aligning operational decisions with sustainability targets, safety commitments, and regulatory expectations.

One highlight emerging from this release is the performance breakthrough of Breton’s new autonomous driving system: field results show that its end-to-end autonomy delivers operational efficiency that now exceeds manual driving—an inflection point that redefines the role of autonomy in sustainable mining.

Advancing Climate and Environmental Goals through Systematic Decarbonization

Breton’s new autonomous mining truck is built on an electric architecture optimized for long-haul, high-payload operations. With access to renewable energy—whether through on-site solar-plus-storage systems or regional clean-power supply—electric trucks can significantly reduce Scope 1 emissions associated with diesel combustion.

With autonomy now delivering higher productivity than human drivers, mines can cut more emissions per unit of output—achieving lower carbon intensity not only through clean energy, but also through superior operational efficiency.

Strengthening Safety by Removing Human Risk Exposure

Breton’s autonomous truck removes the operator from hazardous environments altogether, eliminating risks associated with fatigue, night-shift driving, extreme temperatures, and unstable terrain.

The enhanced efficiency of autonomous operation also improves safety indirectly—and fewer fatigue-related risks across the entire logistics chain.

Enhancing Governance through Data Transparency and Predictable Operations

Breton’s intelligent dispatch and fleet-management platform introduces a level of operational transparency that supports more rigorous governance practices. Such transparency strengthens internal governance frameworks by enabling data-driven decision-making, reducing dependence on manual reporting, and making operational deviations easier to detect and address.

Enabling Long-Term Value Creation for Sustainable Mining

Breton’s purpose-built autonomous electric mining truck offers mining companies a pathway to align operational efficiency with ESG commitments—without compromising productivity.

By integrating electrification, autonomy, and system-level optimization, the solution helps mining companies lower lifecycle operating costs, stabilize output, improve workforce structure, and accelerate progress toward net-zero targets.

Breton’s next-generation autonomous platform signals a shift from “traditional power + manual driving” to “clean energy + intelligent systems,” offering a more feasible, more predictable, and more ESG-aligned roadmap for the global mining sector.

The Academy aims to cultivate engineering talents that are internationally competitive, interdisciplinary and versatile, while building a pivotal platform for the technological and cultural exchange between China and Pakistan.

The launch event took place online and offline simultaneously across three locations in both countries. Representatives of the Thar Block-I integrated coal mine and power project (“Thar Project”), and Shanghai Dianji University signed a cooperation agreement for the Phase I training program, marking the official implementation of the talent cultivation initiative.

Zhu Zhaokai, President of Shanghai Electric Group, remarked that against the backdrop of profound adjustments in the global industrial landscape, there is a growing urgency for enterprises to seek versatile talents equipped with theoretical foundations, engineering practices, international perspectives, and cross-cultural collaboration capabilities.

“The establishment of the Academy is a significant initiative by Shanghai Electric to promote the deep integration of ‘industry-academia-research-application’ and to build an international talent cultivation system,” he said. “Leveraging the academic strengths of Shanghai Dianji University in advanced manufacturing, we will deepen collaborative research, practical teaching, and faculty sharing, working together to create a new model for cultivating international talents under the ‘Belt and Road’ Initiative.”

Gong Siyi, President of Shanghai Dianji University, expressed that the Academy, as a key overseas demonstration project, will be a priority.
