  4. What is the clean development mechanism? The CDM allows emission-reduction projects in developing countries to earn certified emission reduction (CER) credits, each equivalent to one tonne of CO2. These CERs can be traded and sold, and used by industrialized countries to meet part of their emission reduction targets under the Kyoto Protocol. The mechanism stimulates sustainable development and emission reductions, while giving industrialized countries some flexibility in how they meet their emission reduction limitation targets. http://cdm.unfccc.int/about/index.html

  21. Brazilian Sugar CaneIndustry Ethanol as a Fuel: 30-year-old ethanol fuel program Since July 1, 2007 the mandatory blend is 25% of anhydrous ethanol and 75% gasoline Flex-fuel cars- 92.3% share of all new light vehicles in 2009 50% market share of the gasoline-powered fleet by February 2008 Bagasse as an energy source: 420 registered sugar and ethanol plants in Brazil - has 268 registered thermoelectric stations that utilize bagasse from sugar cane as a primary energy source, installed capacity of 3,832MW 1997 Sugar Cane processing units within Brazil were unable to export surplus energy to the grid Over 25 CDM projects registered between April 2006 and June 2007

BaselineandAdditionality CO2 Emissions Baseline Scenario of CO2 Emissions Reduction CO2 in Emissions Actual Monitored Project emissions Years Additionality: Prove that the revenues from the Carbon Credits are essential to the feasibility of the project. Barrier - Financial, Technology, Common Practice etc

  24. STEP ONE - Withinthe Law Vs.

  25. STEP TWO- BarrierAnalysis

  26. STEP THREE – InvestmentAnalysis INVESTMENT OF US$70million dollars - Are the CER revenuesessential to thedevelomentoftheproject?

  27. STEP THREE – InvestmentAnalysis Does theCompany Business Planlookthesame?

  28. STEP FOUR – CommonPractise NATIONAL: Sugar Cane processing units within Brazil were unable to export surplus energy to the grid up until 1997 Ministry of Agriculture - 420 registered sugar and ethanol plants in Brazil. ANEEL has 268 registered thermoelectric stations that utilize bagasse from sugar cane as a primary energy source, installed capacity of 3,832MW. BUT of the units generating energy 11% only export to the grid. Potential - 75% of Brazilian bagasse (146 millions tones) for energy production in 65 bar pressure boilers, the national potential would be 8,375MW

  29. STEP FOUR – CommonPractise LOCAL: Globally?

  33. Final Thoughts – Scaling Up Lack of Demand and Clarity (post 2012) Overly Bureaucratic - project based (2 years, tools etc) Solution? - PoAs, Standardised baselines, NAMAs Sustainable Development vs. Carbon Reductions Delivering Solutions within the present financial systems
