Webinar on the Joint Crediting Mechanism (JCM) Implementation in Chile – Accelerating the Transition towards Decarbonization through JCM –
Ministry of the Environment of Japan (MOEJ) and the Global Environment Centre Foundation (GEC) in collaboration with Government of Chile and Nippon Koei Co., Ltd. will jointly organize “Webinar on the Joint Crediting Mechanism (JCM*1) Implementation in Chile – Accelerating the Transition towards Decarbonization through JCM -” on Friday, October 28th, 2022.
As the world affairs change drastically and resource prices rise, countries around the world are in need of accelerating the transition to a zero-carbon society while maintaining a stable supply of energy. Energy saving and renewable energy by advanced decarbonizing technologies are also becoming increasingly important. The JCM Financing Programme by the Government of Japan promotes the deployment and diffusion of decarbonizing technologies in the JCM partner countries such as Chile and contributes to the achievement of NDC in each country. In this webinar, the Financing Programme for JCM Model Projects*2 will be focused and discussed in detail, and good examples of projects that utilize the Programme will be introduced.
Related to the webinar, GEC will have individual consultation with companies considering applying for JCM Financing Programme. Also, individual meetings will be arranged between registrants of the webinar. Reservation is available through a match-making online platform “JCM Global Match”.
