German Federal Ministry for the Environment CDM/JI Portal
This website provides information on the Clean Development Mechanism (CDM) and on Joint Implementation (JI), two of the flexible mechanisms agreed under the Kyoto Protocol in efforts to reduce global greenhouse gas emissions.
The site primarily addresses an audience with prior knowledge of the international climate change regime. An introduction to
international climate change policy can be found, for example, on the 
Federal Ministry for
the Environment website.
German Environment Ministry and KfW Bank Promote Use of Energy-Saving Lightbulbs in Ukraine
As part of its CDM/JI initiative, the German Environment Ministry (BMU) is supporting development of a JI project on the use of
energy-efficient lighting in Ukraine. In an initial phase, 15,000 energy-saving lightbulbs funded by BMU will be installed in
Ukrainian schools and universities. Later, with assistance from the KfW Carbon Fund, the project will be expanded to provide
some two million lightbulbs. Once the project has been completed, annual savings will amount to around 250,000 t CO2e. The
costs can likely be recouped from the sale of JI certificates.

On 15 December 2009, Ursula Heinen-Esser, Parliamentary State Secretary at the German Environment Ministry (BMU) and Indonesia’s Environment Minister Gusti Muhammad Hatta signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) in Berlin on Cooperation Regarding Clean Development Mechanism Project Activities. Minister Hatta sees huge potential in the biogas, geothermal and waste management sectors, and also in industry per se. Both the German and the Indonesian side stressed the vital role played by the Climate Change Conference in Copenhagen in addressing climate change. Secretary Heinen-Esser invited the Indonesian government to attend the first round of consultations to be held under the new MoU in Berlin at the beginning of 2010.

PoA Blueprint Book Aids Development of Programmatic CDM Projects
As part of its PoA Support Centre activities, the KfW Bank has produced a guide containing sample programmes of activities (PoAs) to aid potential project developers. The guide provides blueprints for six typical sectors: replacing lightbulbs with energy efficient lighting, replacement or reconditioning of household cookers, biogas plants for rural households, solar-powered hot water supply, industrial boilers and energy efficient building modernisation. A brief background is given on each sector along with information on methodological requirements, design options and financial issues.
