The Minam recognized five new carbon market methodologies to mitigate climate change. This will allow to execute projects in different activities with environmental standards.Lima.- The Ministry of Environment (Minam) has established five new methodologies to measure the reduction of greenhouse gases (GHG) in the country; This, in accordance with national goals in front of climate change.
These officially recognized procedures (Directorial Resolution No. 00002-2025-MINAM/VMDERN/DGCCD) open the door to projects that promote the conservation of forests that had been carved, the improvement of the management of waste and hazardous substances; The safe elimination of products that damage the ozone layer and the recycling of electronic waste, among other initiatives.
In addition, projects linked to livestock and agriculture can be executed with environmental standards such as the efficient use of water in rice cultivation to reduce methane emissions or the use of animal manure to generate energy through biogas.
As reported by the Director General of Climate Change and Desertification of the Minam, Berioska Quispe, this measure is framed within the implementation process of the National Registry of Mitigation Measures (RENAMI), a key tool to monitor the countrys progress in its climate commitments.
The recognition of these calculation methodologies will allow more projects to participate in the carbon market, having validated techniques to demonstrate, rigorously and reliable, how they are being reduced or captured by greenhouse gas emissions, he said.
Two of the approved methodologies are part of the Gold Standard for the Global Goals (GS4GG) and three of the Verified Carbon Standard standard (VCS), used worldwide.
This is the second group of methodologies recognized by the Minam. The first was formalized in January 2025.
