La mitigación del cambio climático global es una de las prioridades más importantes de todos los países, el calentamiento global es una realidad. Para lograr esta mitigación, es vital el desarrollo de proyectos orientados a la reducción de emisiones y a un bajo impacto ambiental.

Los mercados de carbono o de reducciones de emisiones de gases de efecto invernaderoson uno de los diversos mecanismos económicos orientados a la mitigación del cambio climático, por lo que es importante conocer las diferentes tecnologías y formas alternas de energía, para buscar proyectos que logren reducir las emisiones en comparación con los sistemas convencionales.

Este curso en línea presenta una perspectiva global que te ayudará en la selección de un mercado de carbono adecuado para diferentes tipos de proyectos, cuantificando una reducción de emisiones y calculando aspectos como:

  • Huella de carbono
  • Ahorros energéticos
  • Ingresos derivados de la mitigación del cambio climático
  • Tiempo de recuperación de la inversión
