Kyoto protocol's emission limits!

A report by Tata Energy Research Institute (TERI) states that companies in the power business can tremendously benefit given that power transmission in India comes with a large percentage of transmission & distribution losses, which, if reduced, can automatically qualify for credits. Similarly, fertiliser companies too are suffering notional losses to the tune of 20 to 30 million euros. Firms like Tata Chemicals, Chambal Fertilisers et al have failed to take carbon advantage. But then, which countries can Indian firms sell these credits to? “India is not amongst the Annexure 1 nations (as per Kyoto Protocol), which means that India is eligible to sell credits to those nations that are in Annexure 1,” remarked TERI’s Dr. P. P. Bhojvaid to B&E. To the chagrin of the US, India, as also China, South Korea and some others, are currently exempted from adherence to Kyoto Protocol’s emission limits!
