How do Carbon Credits work?
A company implements any new way to reduce CO2 emissions. This leads to less carbon emissions compared to their baseline (the emissions which would happen without the project). The Clean Development Mechanism (CDM) then issues the company with a Carbon Emission Reduction credit (CER) for every metric tonne of annual CO2 reduction. The company can then assign these to a carbon credit broker company to sell.
Carbon Credit Terms:
The carbon credits are an economic instrument derived from the Kyoto Protocol. They can only be generated by the mechanisms established in the Kyoto Protocol. There are different types of credits:
• CER: certified emission reduction: it represents one tonne of CO2 not generated or emitted into the atmosphere. They must be certified by a clean development mechanism (CDM).
• ERU: emissions reduction unit: equivalent amount of one tonne CO2 not emitted to the atmosphere due to a joint implementation (JI) project.
