Services

The realisation of the Kyoto Protocol targets ask for an ambitious and carefully designed national and foreign climate policy with regard to the policy targets, the policy instruments and to the concrete measures.

CAP SD advises the Dutch government and international organisations in defining their international climate policy. CAP SD assesses the quantitative potential of JI, CDM and emission trading by quantitative analyses of the potential and by market studies. We support governments in drafting the national policy and rules in participating in the Kyoto Mechanisms. We also advise corporates in their strategic use of emission trading.

In order to guarantee objective consultancy CAP SD is neither involved commercially in CDM project development nor in the credits trade through JI, CDM or emission trading.

Experience

CAP SD explores the market, develops guidelines for baselines, and supports in establishing procedures and institutional arrangements in the JI and CDM host countries.

We have experience in policy research, and in identifying cost-effective options for emission reduction. We carry out market studies and set up baseline guidelines for the Dutch JI and CDM tenders.

We have built up expertise in capacity building projects in various JI and CDM host countries, such as Romania, Bulgaria, Latvia and Indonesia.
