Carbon Credits
The UN Framework Convention on Climate Change is the international community’s key convention committing parties to stabilise the atmospheric concentrations of greenhouse gases at acceptable levels.  In 1997, the Kyoto Protocol was negotiated and adopted, and entered into force in 2005. The protocol allowed for three different kinds of international flexible market-base mechanisms to help the parties meet their target, and one of them was the Clean Development Mechanism (CDM).
Wind and hydropower are both clean renewable energy sources, and are thus qualified to apply for CDM quotas. Hydropower plays a significant role in the CDM, and wind power also has a sizeable share of CDM registrations. As part of the The SN Power Group, we are committed to develop projects that contribute to a reduction of green house gas emissions.

At present, the SN Power Group has successfully registered three large run-of-river hydropower projects in India, Chile and Peru and one wind project in Chile under the CDM resulting in a combined reduction of 1,433,000 tons of CO2 per year. Applications for CDM registration of another three hydropower projects are in preparation.

SN Power’s registered CDM projects are expected to issue carbon credits amounting to more than 1,2 million certified emissions reductions (CER) annually. If the projects in the validation stage are successfully registered, they have the potential to issue an estimated annual volume of about 2 million CERs.
Hydropower has the best CO2 performance of all power generating technologies

The purpose of CDM
The purpose of the Clean Development Mechanism (CDM) is clean development in developing countries and promote projects that reduce emissions
