In addition to the Project Guidelines developed, this Appendix lays out the different models for potential public-private partnerships (or PPPs) to generate emissions reduction credits (ERCs) from deploying technologies that reduce or remove emissions. These could also include activities that are part of larger infrastructure-type investments.
These Project Assessment Guidelines aim to provide a comprehensive and adaptable guide to identify and develop ERC projects and investments in order to generate high-quality ERCs to be sold in global markets.

The carbon market landscape is in a state of rapid and continuous evolution, and it is crucial that countries embrace the ability to adapt and reflect the latest market developments. At the same time, alongside global market shifts, the interactions and implications at a local level also differ from country to country. While the Guidelines was developed based on insights from various sources that reflect the market standards and expectations for high-quality ERCs, it is important to note that these perspectives are dynamic.
