Zefiro is focused on reducing emissions of methane gas, which is 25x to 84x more potent than carbon dioxide emissions. Through its asset retirement and environmental markets operations, Zefiro is the only fully integrated provider focused on the millions of sites throughout North America that continue to leak methane on a daily basis. Zefiro’s partnerships with industry operators, state agencies, and federal governments are expected to continue increasing the Company’s revenue and EBITDA growth for public shareholders.
Zefiro continues to build out its presence in the United States, where the latest expert estimates indicate that there are more than four million abandoned wells, with USD $4.7 billion in federal funding recently announced for orphaned well site plugging, remediation and restoring activities to help address the leading causes of the methane emissions crisis. Throughout 2023, Zefiro scaled its foundation as an environmental services company with its acquisition of Plants & Goodwin, Inc. (based in Bradford, Pennsylvania), and a strategic bolt-on acquisition of Appalachian Well Surveys, Inc., a wireline company in Cambridge, Ohio, which makes it fully integrated. In July 2023, Zefiro announced the presale of certified carbon credits to Mercuria Energy America, LLC, which is the United States-based division of one of the world’s largest independent energy and commodities groups. Additionally, in December 2023, Zefiro hosted an event in the “Blue Zone” of the United Nations’ Climate Change Conference in Dubai.
Zefiro and related subsidiaries have recently been featured by multiple media outlets including MarketWatch, Quantum Commodity Intelligence, the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette, World Oil, and the Wall Street Journal. Please also see a recent op-ed by Zefiro Founder and Chief Executive Officer Talal Debs highlighting ‘Active Sustainability’ which utilizes capital to support a solution to a problem such as the methane emissions crisis, while also driving economic value as a business.
