Possible criteria for the creation of emissions reduction credits under a domestic emissions reduction credit trading program / by Andrew Pape and Robert Hornung and Erik Haites.: En133-5/6-1999E-PDF

This paper concludes with an example that illustrates the challenges associated with applying criteria for credit creation in the real world. The example will help demonstrate that in any credit trading program that uses criteria for credit creations, an institutional mechanism must be established to both assess emissions reductions and resolve differences in judgement. This paper does not address either the mechanics of such a system or the issue of who should be responsible for it. These issues are, however, addressed in some detail in NRTEE Issue Paper 8 (Analysis of emissions trading program design features).--Introduction
