Challenges
CMM, CBM, MSW, Transport as CDM projects
SME & CPSUs potential un-tapped
Afforestation and Bio-diesel offer opportunities for
Community CDM Projects
CDM Revenue to be considered by Financial
Institutions. Innovative financing models needed.
Identification of suitable buyers willing to share the
risk
Road Ahead
Carbon Market Post 2012 uncertainty reduced
significantly
Broad methodologies applicable with wider
application
Encouraging Programmatic and Sectoral CDM
More dedicated capacity building needed in Carbon
Trading
Conceiving major CDM projects
