EPRI Hosts 7th GHG Emissions Offset Policy Dialogue
On Feb. 25, EPRI hosted the seventh workshop in its EPRI Greenhouse Gas (GHG) Emissions Offset Policy Dialogue project, held in Washington D.C.  Approximately 85 representatives from the policymaking, environmental, industrial, financial, and research communities participated.  The workshop explored the potential design, evolution, and scale of mechanisms to reduce GHG emissions across whole economic sectors, particularly in the developing world.  Discussions covered policy developments from COP-15, held in Copenhagen, Denmark in December 2009, including progress on Clean Development Mechanism (CDM) reform.  The workshop also explored the potential supply of “sector-based” emissions reductions that could be achieved in key economic sectors and countries around the world.  Workshop materials are available on the Global Climate Webpage.  For more information, contact Adam Diamant, (510) 260-9105, adiamant@epri.com.
