Greenhouse gas compensation projects in Switzerland Validation
and verification of project based emission reductions according to the execution aid of the FOEN and
the SFOE
What does the product offer?
The execution aid
for compensation projects of the FOEN and the SFOE specifies the effective requirements for the realization
of greenhouse gas compensation projects in Switzerland. Operators of combined-cycle gas turbine plants
have to compensate the majority of their emissions inland and are therefore dependent on emission reductions
coming from compensation projects. The projects must achieve real, measurable and long-term emission
reductions in order to mitigate global warming. Target groups
Investors
who plan to realize a greenhouse gas compensation project according to the FOEN and SFOE guidelines. Customer’s
benefit
The validation and verification by a third independent party are regulated
in the guidelines of the FOEN and SFOE. Validity
The
positive validation result is a precondition for running the project. The verification is required prior
to the approval of emission reductions.
