Chevron Singapore launches Caltex Carbon Offset Programme
Customers can now use loyalty points to offset a portion of the greenhouse gas emissions from their fuel purchase through the CaltexGO app.
Chevron Singapore has launched the Caltex Carbon Offset Programme, the first voluntary carbon offset programme for its Caltex service stations in Singapore. Integrated into the brand’s mobile payment app CaltexGO, customers enrolled in its loyalty programme can choose to opt-in and use their loyalty points earned from their fuel purchase to offset a portion of the greenhouse gas emissions from the fuel.
“In 2022, we are proud to expand on Chevron’s lower carbon options for consumers with the launch of the first Caltex Carbon Offset Programme in Singapore. We are driving energy progress essential to a growing, dynamic world while listening to customer feedback,” said Brant Fish, President of Chevron International Fuels & Lubricants.
When customers fuel up at Caltex service stations and pay via the CaltexGO app, a fuel purchase of 50 litres will generate 100 loyalty points. The customer may opt in to contribute their loyalty points earned from their fuel purchase towards the purchase of carbon offsets and offset a portion of the GHG emissions from the combustion of their fuel purchased. These carbon offsets are verified by an independent third-party, the Verified Carbon Standard Program.
“Chevron Singapore is committed to protecting the environment and we believe our customers are too. By integrating the option to participate in the Caltex Carbon Offset Programme in CaltexGO, we kept it simple, allowing our customers to enjoy the seamless experience they are familiar with,” added Fish.
For the launch, Chevron Singapore has chosen to purchase carbon offsets from identified nature-based projects from the Verra registry.
