The Blog – CDM Projects India

CDM Projects India is an initiative by, IndScan Research, an offshoot of Enpejay Research Information Services ( my breadwinner) that covers the news, events and business opportunities pertaining to Clean Development Mechanism projects in and around India.

According to wikipedia,

The Clean Development Mechanism (CDM) is an arrangement under the Kyoto Protocol allowing industrialised countries with a greenhouse gas reduction commitment (called Annex B countries) to invest in projects that reduce emissions in developing countries as an alternative to more expensive emission reductions in their own countries. A crucial feature of an approved CDM carbon project is that it has established that the planned reductions would not occur without the additional incentive provided by emission reductions credits, a concept known as “additionality”

The blog started in March 2007, has over 1000 articles that include CDM projects ( registered, validated and allotted ), News, trade leads, links to documents, research papers, reports, white papers, case studies published by authoritative bodies.

I am interested more in the business opportunity side of CDM projects more than the technology or the concern over social concern. Hence, in this blog one can find articles, links related to these and nothing else.

I also maintain a database of Carbon Traders & CDM Consultants ( with updates every now & then). Please feel free to add your company to the list.
