Samenvatting:
An assessment is presented of the potential and cost of the CleanDevelopment Mechanism as an instrument to partially meet the Greenhouse Gases
emission limitation commitments of the Netherlands for the first budget
period, 2008-2012. Information about the cost and emission reduction
potential in the energy sector has been collected from national mitigation
studies. In total, some 300 GHG emission reduction options in 24 non-Annex I
countries have been collected Together, these countries account for
two-thirds of current non-Annex I GHG emissions. The mitigation potential in
non-Annex I countries is significant when compared with Annex I reduction
requirements. The inventory of mitigation options suggests that an annual
mitigation potential in the first budget period at costs up to 1990 USD
10/ton CO2 is approximately 1.7 Gt CO2 equivalents. However, this estimate
should be viewed with caution, as the mitigation studies on which this
estimate is based have been carried out as capacity-building exercises and
they should not be viewed as definitive, technically rigorous, exhaustive,
analysis of national GHG mitigation potential. 15 refs.
