 CDM Due diligence
Not all projects can be registered under the Clean Development Mechanism of the Kyoto Protocol. Carbon Hill’s team of experts works with clients to help explore the Carbon Credits generation potential of proposed projects. Advantages of a CDM Due Diligence include crystallizing the CER generation potential of proposed projects in advance, thereby enabling the developer to consider this potential while raising the required resources. A CDM Due Diligence also helps lower the risk of unnecessary expenditure from developing the Project Design Document to the registration process.
All Carbon Hill’s project’s comply to the eligibility norms for registration, we will be happy to assist you achieve the desired results. Carbon Hill’s CDM consultants review and assess potential CDM projects keeping in mind the present market trends. Carbon Hill provides incisive market analysis and innovative carbon market solutions for its clients. Working closely with the clients we develop the strategy for registering the proposed project(s) under the CDM.
The purpose of having document is to have an insight about the quantity of carbon credits, which could be earned from a project. These documents serve as a marketing document and the buyers/investors can decide after a cost-benefit analysis.
A design document is the primary document required for registering projects under the Clean Development Mechanism, it counts a number of critical points such as the case for demonstrating the project's additionally and contribution to the host country's sustainable development, the determination of the baseline scenario and the description of the project. While developing the PDD, our CDM consultants help the client identify, quantify and establish the various aspects of the PDD including:
- The case for Project Additionally - An essential point in proving the projects eligibility to be registered under the CDM, the concept of additionally revolves around establishing the fact that the said project would not have been implemented in the absence of it being registered and thus generating carbon credits. Our team works with the client in identifying the baseline scenario, keeping in view the local conditions and practices and then formulates the argument for presenting the project as 'additional'.
- Emissions Baseline - It refers to emissions that would occur in the absence of the proposed project activity. This is of special significance as it determines the number of credits that can be awarded to a project.
- Monitoring and Validation - Working together with the client and the operational entity, our team helps in the development of a suitable monitoring and validation methodology, keeping in view the practical and financial aspects of the process.
- Host Country Approval – Carbon Hill helps prepare the application for securing the Host Country Approval for projects proposed to be developed under the CDM. The country's Designated National Authority will examine the project's contribution to the country's sustainable development. Whereas certain countries have a relatively straightforward process for securing their approval, others have a very tedious and long drawn procedure.
