-This page focuses on the possibilities and challenges of successful carbon finance. The [[Clean_Development_Mechanism_(CDM)|Clean Development Mechanism (CDM)]] provides a tool for accessing carbon credits for certified emission reductions of '''greenhouse gases (GHGs)''' in developing countries. The funds must be used to enable these reductions, which would otherwise not be possible.

 Financial payments for reducing '''greenhouse gas (GHG''') emissions can be an additional source of funding for energy projects. This so-called carbon finance can be accessed by implementing a project under the requirements of the '''Clean Development Mechanism (CDM)''' of the Kyoto Protocol or for the '''Voluntary Carbon Market (VCM)'''.

 The CDM&nbsp;is one of three felxible mechanisms under the Kyoto Protocol; the others being Emissions Trading and Joint Implementation. All these mechanisms aim to achieve GHG reduction in a cost effective manner.&nbsp;While Emissions Trading and Joint Implementation are reserved for countries with binding reduction targets, the CDM&nbsp;allows the participation of countries without targets.&nbsp;Emissions reduction credits that have been achieved through the CDM in a renewable energy or energy effiency prject in a developing country can be sold to a country with commitments listed in Annex I of the Kyoto Procol ([http://unfccc.int/national_reports/annex_i_natcom/submitted_natcom/items/3625.php Annex I Countries]).
