Wh,a t: Type1s of Prole ,c qual i ' fy for CDM in Fiji?

~ Renewable Energy

• Large Hydro power (over 15 MWL

• Mini Hydro power,

• Biomass power - e.g. Waste products from sugar, timbermilling,

• Solar PV,

• Solar Thermal,

• Wind Energy,

• Biogas



What Type:s of Project qualUfy for ,CIDMin FiiJi CO'ln't.ul I

~ Energy Efficiency Improvements

o Improving efficiency in electricity production,

o Improving energy efficiency in industries, e.g. Tourism,

cement manufacture and sugar,

o Improving energy efficiency in households,

o Switching from high carbon content to a low carbon content

fuel,

o More efficient process and steam systems

~ Forestry

o Afforestation projects - e.g. Degraded grasslands,

o Reforestation projects

Iaste Management

o Power and heat production from waste,

o Anaerobic waste water treatment e.g. Methane gas flaring

'What Tvpes o f P ro jec t quali'fy fo r 'C ID Min Fiij'i'C:o ,n " t :..

~ Transport

~ Efficiency improvement for vehicles,

~ Switching to low carbon content fuels, e.g. Second generation

biofuels



~ DNA (DOE) is the Approving Authority

~ Consider Environmental & Social Requirements:

.:. Project participants will be required to follow Fiji'sEnvironmental Impact Assessment (EIA) Guideline and

requirements in order to complete this process .

•:. Consult landowners and resource users in a culturally

appropriate manner



Exist'ing Legiislative F'rsmlew'ork suppertlng the

I C D I M I

in Fiji. These include;

~ Electricity Act (Cap. 180)

~ Public Enterprise Act (1996)

~ Hotels Aid Act (amended 1999)

~ Commerce Act (1998)

~ Fuel & Power Emergency Act (Cap. 191)

~ Native Land Trust Act (Cap. 134)

~ Crowns Land Act (Cap. 132)

~ Environmental Management Act (EMA 2005)

~ Public Private Partnership Act (2006)
