GHG Mitigation Program

Identification of GHG emission reduction opportunities

The India GHG Program led by WRI India, Confederation of India Industry (CII) and The Energy and Resources Institute (TERI) is an industry-led voluntary framework to measure and manage greenhouse gas emissions.

Necessary measures include stopping the use of fossil fuels, expanding renewable energy sources, increasing energy efficiency, phasing out the use of fluorinated greenhouse gases (F gases) that are extremely harmful to the climate, as well as sustainable approaches to transport and urban planning.

A wide range of strategies are available to help organizations reduce their greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions. Below are a list of resources and guides to help your organization identify and implement GHG reduction opportunities.

Program Application Criterion
CDM - Clean Development Mechanism, driven by UNFCCC (United Nations) 6 months from date of Purchase Order (major equipment) we need to send CDM Consideration form.
VCS - Verified Carbon Standard, driven by VCS Board, USA. 2 years from COD, DOE Validation report should be issued. The ideal time to apply is within 1.5 years from COD.
GS VER - Gold Standard, driven by GS Board, Switzerland 1 year from date of Purchase order (major equipment) project should be listed at Registry.
GCC - Global carbon council
There are four project types : -
A1: Projects not commissioned as on 5th July 2020 and not submitted to any existing GHG program. The start date of operations shall be on or after 5 July 2020 and after the date of submission of a complete registration request to the GCC Program.

A2: Projects start date of operations shall be after 1 January 2016 but before 5 July 2022 These types of projects shall submit complete registration requests to the GCC Program no later than 5 July 2022.

B1 & B2: Existing CDM Registered projects need to be de-registered first and then applied into GCC. Post de-registration from CDM, the remaining crediting period for which CERs have not been issued by UNFCCC subject to a ceiling of 10 year fixed crediting period allowed under GCC program.

Project Development.

  1. Sourcing carbon credits from the eligible project and get renewable project registered under GHG mechanism.
  2. Preparing PDD(Project detail documents)
  3. Facilitate local approvals, regulatory compliance and other procedural documentation and requirements
  4. Develop methodology on a variety of sectors and standards

Validation/registration, verification, PRC (post registration changes), RCP (Renewal of crediting period).

Green Energy
  1. • Facilitate validation of projects by authorized validator (and of stakeholder validation from a social accountability angle).
  2. • Facilitate host country approval
  3. • Facilitate registration with the relevant body (e.g. UNFCCC for CDM)
  4. Facilitate verification process, leading to issuance of carbon credits
