Encash the Carbon Cache: Indian Carbon Market - 2011 and Beyond
Infraline Energy, March 2011, Pages: 170
Ever since early 1990s, economies around the world have been taking initiatives to arrest the perils of the changing climate. However, it is only the later part of the last decade that saw the ‘combating climate change’ strategy being pursued more aggressively than ever before, with contribution from countries across the globe. From Kyoto to Cancun, the nations have come a long way in reconciling the roles of developed and developing countries in lieu of their common yet differentiated responsibilities.
The Kyoto Protocol’s market based mechanisms viz. International Emissions Trading (IET), Clean Development Mechanism (CDM) and Joint Implementation (JI), have steered the way for the Global Carbon Markets which are now mature yet, nascent. The European Union’s Emissions Trading Scheme (EU ETS) has set the precedence for a robust market framework and thus far, EU has been the largest carbon market. Albeit, other nations are yet to mark a foray into this market; with the prospects of embryonic markets in Australia, Japan and the USA, the size of carbon markets is expected to amplify in the coming years.
For the Non-Annex I countries, who have so far adopted the CDM route for GHG abatements; the expansion of the markets in Annex I countries means a spurt in the economic opportunities. These countries serve as platforms for relatively cheap emission reduction ventures, thereby generating Certified Emission Reductions (CERs) which can yield a lucrative value, when traded in the Global Carbon Markets.
With a regulatory environment conducive for CDM business, the industries in India have been quite proactive in seizing the prospects in carbon markets. At present, India is one of the largest CER developers in the world. In addition, India has been quite active and innovative in identifying new methods of emissions reduction across industries. And, with the expected gush in the demand for CERs, there is all the more need of such inventive and novel ideas to cater to the new carbon markets.
With this background and as a part of its latest edition under Business Series Report, Infraline Energy launches a report, “Encash the Carbon Cache: Indian Carbon Market – 2011 and Beyond”. From identifying the business opportunities in the carbon arena, pan industries, to assessing the economic value of the CERs in the expanding global markets; the report serves as a comprehensive guide for the existing and potential stakeholders of the carbon chain.
