Guidance for Countries in Assessing ERC Projects

Guidance for Countries in Assessing ERC Projects

Section Overview

As the world continues to grapple with the impacts of climate change, the urgent need to reduce carbon emissions has driven the use of carbon pricing instruments and trading of emissions reduction to create the incentives needed to meet emissions reduction targets established by Governments and by businesses. These Guidelines aim to provide a comprehensive and adaptable guide to identify and develop Emission Reduction Credit projects and investments.

Practical and implementable guidelines for governments to select ERC projects:

The Guidelines are designed to provide practical and implementable guidelines for governments to select ERC projects that are most likely to attract high demand and best-value pricing, and identify key elements related to the project’s governance and sales strategy that will enable the project to achieve its value potential. 

They can be applied to review a pipeline of projects, assess the potential of an individual project or program in consideration of its eligibility and viability for ERC generation, or select projects with the most likely value-for-money ERC development opportunities and can be used in parallel with the Guidelines for Country System Assessments and Mobilizing ERC Finance.
