Gaining Momentum

VP Carbon is a verifiable subsidiary of the Vu Phong Energy Group (Vietnam), established in late 2023 to provide decarbonization and I-REC consulting. While the project has high real-world utility in the growing B2B green energy market, the submission quality was extremely poor (lazy inputs, false 'everyone' reach claims, unsupported traction). The score reflects the legitimate business backing and market timing, heavily penalized for the low-quality submission and lack of specific evidence provided by the user.
