I. Institutional Approach of the CDM in Peru
• The Ministry of Environment (MINAM) is the Designated National Authority (DNA) in Peru, responsible for approving and issuing the approval letter (LoA) of the country.
• The National Environmental Fund (FONAM) is a private-public organization, which promotes the carbon market in Peru. FONAM elaborates the National Low Carbon Emission Portfolio, including the Programme of Activities (PoA) under the CDM and voluntary market.
II. Criteria and Approval Process for CDM Projects and PoA-CDM
• By Directive N°002-2009-MINAM (Assessment Procedure for approval of projects to reduce emissions of greenhouse gases and carbon capture), MINAM assesses whether the "proposed project contributes to sustainable development in Peru“
• The Letter of Approval is issued within twenty seven (27) days after the request for approval from the project developer.
• During the approval process a visit to the project site is required as well as an on-site meeting with the relevant stakeholders. Afterwards, the approval decision depends on the Ad-Hoc Committee, which is chaired by MINAM.
Criteria to determine the sustainable development:
• Compliance with existing national legislation and sectorial policies.
• Compliance with environmental best practices defined in the contribution to emissions reduction greenhouse gas emissions and fossil fuel use.
• Reduction of environmental pollution and negative health effects.• Promoting biodiversity protection;• Environmental sound use of land and water• Proper management of solid waste and effluents; and ,• other environmental benefits.
• Contribution to economic growth and competitiveness improvement of Peru. • Measurable through investment generated by the project, wealth, employment and
technology transfer.
• Maintaining and/or improving the quality of life of communities near the project development.
• Measurable by the impact of social investment plan in the community, employment generation and adequately remunerated, opportunities to facilitate gender equity and improvement of local infrastructure.

IV. INNOVATION IDEAS: From PoAs to NAMAs
• In Peru, some Nationally Appropiate Mitigation Actions (NAMAs) can take advantage from the lessons learned during the PoA process development.
Study Case of PoA to NAMAs in Peru.
• LECB Project will elaborate NAMAs and MRV for construction materials sector.
• With the support of Collaboration Regional Center and UNFCCC a standardized baseline will be develop for the construction material sector (brick, cement and steel). This standardized baseline can be used as input for potential NAMAs.
• The “Energy Efficiency Program in Latin American Artisanal Brick to Mitigate Climate Change (EELA)” is a potential initiative to scale-up a PoA to a NAMA and would take advantage from the standardized baseline. This Program was recognized by Momentum for Change (*).
