1. 1. Clean development Mechanism (CDM) Policy and Implementation in China

   Författare :Lei Zeng; Leif Gustavsson; Mälardalens högskola; []
   Nyckelord :Climate change; Clean development mechanism; CDM; CO2; Green House Gas; GHG; landfill gas; sustainable development; China; Energi- och miljöteknik;

   Sammanfattning : China is the second largest emitter of greenhouse gases (GHG) in the world. Since 68% of its primary energy is from coal, China’s average energy intensity is 7.5 times higher than the EU and 4.3 times higher than the US (EU, 2003). LÄS MER

3. 2. Understanding the Clean Development Mechanism and its dual aims : the case of China's projects

   Författare :Qie Sun; Ronald Wennersten; Nils Brandt; Magnus Enell; KTH; []
   Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Clean development mechanism CDM ; Climate change mitigation; Kyoto Protocol; Sustainable Development; China’s mitigation strategy; Cost benefit analysis CBA ; co-benefits; Multi-criteria analysis MCA ; Analytic Hierarchy Process AHP ; Environmental engineering; Miljöteknik; SRA - Energy; SRA - Energi;

   Sammanfattning : Having been running for over 10 years, the Clean Development Mechanism (CDM) is considered an innovative and successful mitigation initiative. CDM has the dual aims of helping industrialised countries achieve compliance with their emission limitation and reduction commitments in a cost-effective way, while simultaneously assisting developing countries in sustainable development.

4. 3. Hybrid Governance in Practice : Public and Private Actors in the Kyoto Protocol's Clean Development Mechanism

   Författare :Emma Lund; Statsvetenskapliga institutionen; []
   Nyckelord :SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; effectiveness; private actors; multilateral environmental agreements; hybrid governance; global governance; climate regime; UNFCCC; Kyoto Protocol; CDM; Clean Development Mechanism;

   Sammanfattning : It is commonly argued that the private sector needs to become actively involved for society to stand a chance of solving the most pressing global problems. This thesis, consisting of five articles previously published in refereed journals and an introductory essay, studies one case of private actor participation in global environmental governance: the Kyoto Protocol’s Clean Development Mechanism (CDM).

5. 4. Carbon Credits: Origins, Effectiveness & Future

   Författare :Linn Takeuchi Waldegren; Miljö- och energisystem; []
   Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Additionality; carbon credits; Clean Development Mechanism CDM ; effectiveness; emissions reductions;

   Sammanfattning : Carbon credits are used as an instrument for climate change mitigation. Each credit represents a reduction in greenhouse gas emissions (GHGs) equivalent of 1 ton of carbon dioxide. LÄS MER

7. 5. Climate change mitigation through CDM : bioenergy technology and energy efficiency in the steel industry

   Författare :Chuan Wang; Luleå tekniska universitet; []
   Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Energiteknik; Energy Engineering;

   Sammanfattning : Climate change is one of the most significant challenges to sustainable development facing the international community. Increased attention has been given by industries and governments from both industrialized and developing countries to reduce greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions through the clean development mechanism (CDM), one of the Kyoto Protocol's (KP) flexible mechanisms.
