Time Warner and Teletrips Track Telecommuting for Emission Reduction Credits

Time Warner Cable's Road Runner Business Class Internet service is teaming up with Teletrips Inc., a company that tracks telecommuting sessions for work-at-home employee programs. Teletrips is a partner in the US EPA's eCommute Pilot Program now underway in Washington, D.C., Philadelphia, Denver, Los Angeles and Houston. Each week, employees can log "non-trips to work" through the teletrips.com web-based system. Teletrips calculates, verifies and aggregates the reduced vehicle emissions attributable to the employer's telework program. The Road Runner/Teletrips service allows participating companies to acquire air emission reduction credits that could be sold in the US stationary emissions trading market.
