Climate cooperation from Kyoto to Paris: What can be learnt from the CDM experience?

PurposeThe purpose of this paper is to identify critical Clean Development Mechanism (CDM) benefits and assess their relative significance in the context of developing economies (e.g. India).Design/methodology/approachThis study has conducted face-to-face (offline/online) discussions with experts in order to identify appropriate criteria and related CDM benefits. Further, this study has used subsequently, using the analytic hierarchy process, a multi-criteria decision-making method and assess the relative significance of benefits of CDM projects.FindingsThe results reveal that knowledge and capacity building, technology transfer and social benefits are the most significant CDM benefits, respectively. It is because the knowledge and capacity building tends to disseminate the awareness on CDM benefits among policymakers and stakeholders, thereby, lead to efficient policy-making and encourage effective technology transfer in a way to achieve sustainable economic growth in the host country.Originality/valueThe literature is dominated by studies of CDM projects in Brazil, Mexico, Chile, Africa and China. Within the thousands of CDM projects globally, India only has 1,376 registered CDM projects. To the authors' knowledge, this is one of the first studies that highlight the relative significance of CDM benefits in the context of India. This study will enhance the implementation in the Indian scenario.

“…The UNFCCC also devised private financial mechanisms. The mechanisms, however, gave rise to criticisms about their concentration within some countries, their additionality, and their contribution to sustainable development (Mele, Paglialunga, and Sforna 2021). Carbon markets struggle to catalyze funding: the CDM market collapsed in 2011 when it became clear that the European Trading System would stop accepting CDM emission reduction certificates.…”

“…The main areas of interventions are the energy and manufacturing sectors. In the Kyoto Protocol (Cole, 2012) and subsequently in the Paris Agreement (Mele et al, 2021) the international community agreed to collectively reduce GHG emissions, with emissions trading as one of the tools (Newell et al, 2014). The transition to lowcarbon and renewable energy requires investment in the private sector (business and households) (Hak et al, 2017;Shem et al, 2019).…”

The role and meaning of sustainable development have been recognized in the scientific literature for decades. However, there has recently been a dynamic increase in interest in the subject, which results in numerous, in-depth scientific research and publications with an interdisciplinary dimension. This edited volume is a compendium of theoretical knowledge on sustainable development. The context analysed in the publication includes a multi-level and multi-aspect analysis starting from the historical and legal conditions, through elements of the macro level and the micro level, inside the organization.Organizing Sustainable Development offers a systematic and comprehensive theoretical analysis of sustainable development supplemented with practical examples, which will allow obtaining comprehensive knowledge about the meaning and its multi-context application in practice. It shows the latest state of knowledge on the topic and will be of interest to students at an advanced level, academics and reflective practitioners in the fields of sustainable development, management studies, organizational studies and corporate social responsibility.
