News Release

On 15 January 2020, UPM’s Sichuan Rural Poor-Household Biogas Development Programme (CDM PoA 2898, GS 1239) successfully obtained its seventh issuance with nearly 823,000 Gold Standard CERs, all vintage 2018. After deduction of 2% of issued carbon credits as CDM share of proceeds for climate change adaptation cost assistance, slightly more than 806,000 premium-quality GS CERs will be available for sale.

The next issuance of GS CERs, all vintage 2019, from this high-impact climate protection programme in China is expected for the second quarter of 2021 provided there will be no longer delays during monitoring and verification due to the spreading Corona virus.
