Steps for getting carbon credit
- Prepare a project design document (PDD) that would explain the details of the project. The PDD should explain how the project would reduce GHGs and help in sustainable development. Most of the companies tend to appoint consultants for preparing PDDs.
-
The PDD is then submitted to the National CDM Authority for getting a "host country approval. The project is then taken to the CDM Executive Board at the UNFCCC.
The project has to undergo a validation, registration and issuance of CERs process at the UNFCCC.
The project validation is done by firms known as designated operational entities (DOEs), which are approved by the UNFCCC to do so.
The projects are then registered at the UNFCCC and finally, CERs are issued. The issued CERS are generally spread over specified time period of the project.
At the UNFCCC, there is a provision for relatively faster clearance of small-scale CDM projects. The small-scale projects include renewable energy project activities with a maximum output capacity of 15 MW and energy efficiency improvement project activities that reduce energy consumption by up to 15 gigawatt a year, among others. The speed of project clearance at the UNFCCC also depends on whether the project conforms to one of the methodologies already approved by the CDM Executive Board (EB).
