Why Carbon Trading? Why investing in CDM Projects?
Carbon emissions trading reached a total value of USD 60 billion worldwide in 2007, up 80% from 2006. Asia has rapidly growing carbon emissions trading potential and is a major selling region for Clean Development Mechanism (CDM) with more than 80% of global market share. The region of Southeast Asia ranks third highest in greenhouse gas emissions among developing countries.
CDM is a mechanism based on the provision of Article 12 of the Kyoto Protocol. It is a scheme for greenhouse gas (GHG) reduction between developed countries which are committed to certain GHG emissions reduction targets in the Kyoto Protocol and developing countries which do not have any commitments to reduce GHG emission.
The main purpose of the CDM is to assist to accomplish the GHG reduction targets of developed countries under the Kyoto Protocol, as well as to contribute to sustainable development of the developing countries, the Host Coun-tries. Under the CDM scheme, developed countries implement consulting, validation, and verification of reduction of green house gas emission with in the territories of the Host Countries. Developed countries parties are able to ac-quire all or parts of the credits (Certified emission reduction): CERs which result from the project and which can be traded at the Carbon Markets.
