MOEJ and GEC host Seminar on the Joint Crediting Mechanism (JCM) Implementation in Chile

 

 

The Ministry of the Environment, Japan (MOEJ) and the Global Environment Centre Foundation (GEC) in collaboration with Chilean Government will jointly organize “Seminar on the Joint Crediting Mechanism (JCM*1) Implementation in Chile” on 29 August 2019 in Santiago.

Government of Japan is promoting the Joint Crediting Mechanism (JCM), and Prime Minister Shinzo Abe at COP21 announced, ”Japan will, while lowering burdens of those countries, promote diffusion of advanced low carbon technologies particularly through implementation of the Joint Crediting Mechanism (JCM).”
 
To support the implementation of candidate JCM projects, MOEJ has established the Financing Programme for JCM Model Projects*2 to disseminate leading low carbon technologies. So far Japanese government has established JCM with 17 countries. The seminar will be participated by government officials and business leaders from both countries, and it aims at sharing overview and progress of JCM and facilitating project development and scaling up those future projects.
 
We would appreciate your participation.

From this year, interested attendees can also use the new online match-making platform, “JCM Global Match” to arrange these meetings with potential Japanese counterparts prior to the seminar. With this new platform, those interested in the JCM can now seek potential project partners and continue to discuss your project, or search for companies that meet your interests.
