India and Japan have adopted the Rules of Implementation for the Joint Crediting Mechanism (JCM) under Article 6.2 of the Paris Agreement, for enhancing cooperation on climate action, greenhouse gas emission reduction and sustainable development initiatives. According to the Ministry of Environment, Forest and Climate Change, the Rules of Implementation were adopted on 8th June this year following the Memorandum of Cooperation signed between the two countries last year for the Joint Crediting Mechanism. The mechanism provides a framework for collaboration on mitigation projects that reduce or remove greenhouse gas emissions while supporting sustainable development in India. It will also contribute to the achievement of the Nationally Determined Contributions (NDCs) of both India and Japan under the Paris Agreement.

According to the Ministry of Environment, Forest and Climate Change, the Rules of Implementation were adopted on 8th June this year following the Memorandum of Cooperation signed between the two countries last year for the Joint Crediting Mechanism.
 The mechanism provides a framework for collaboration on mitigation projects that reduce or remove greenhouse gas emissions while supporting sustainable development in India. It will also contribute to the achievement of the Nationally Determined Contributions (NDCs) of both India and Japan under the Paris Agreement.
 The Rules of Implementation lay down governance arrangements for the mechanism, including the establishment of a Joint Committee comprising representatives of both governments, transparent project approval procedures, third-party validation and verification processes, sustainable development safeguards and national registries for tracking the issuance and transfer of carbon credits.
 .  The Ministry said the Joint Crediting Mechanism reflects India’s commitment to climate action and is expected to promote investment, technology transfer and capacity-building for projects involving low-carbon technologies in the country. The initiative is aimed at supporting climate change mitigation efforts while advancing sustainable development goals.

Hydrogen at home — It's the end of solar and wind power

  Hydrogen at home — It's the end of solar and wind power         Statement "1000 pounds" per day of hydrogen at home — It's the end of solar and wind power in the world" is not accurate.     While hydrogen can be produced from renewable energy sources like solar and wind power, it's not a replacement for those sources themselves. Hydrogen production via electrolysis, using renewable electricity, is a promising avenue for decarbonization, but it doesn't negate the need for solar and wind power as direct energy sources.  Cause behind its is as under. Hydrogen as an Energy Carrier:-     Hydrogen is an energy carrier, meaning it stores energy produced elsewhere (like from solar or wind) and can be used to power fuel cells or for other applications.  Electrolysis:-     A key method of producing "green" hydrogen involves using electricity from renewable sources (like solar and wind) to split water into hydrogen and oxygen throu...

Solar Generation in Night hrs

How to get get Solar generations in Night        While standard solar panels cannot generate electricity at night,     New technologies are being developed to address this limitation.      These advancements focus on harnessing the earth's heat or using infrared radiation emitted by the Earth to generate power, potentially creating 24-hour renewable energy sources.  Key Concepts and Technologies :- 1) Anti-Solar Panels (Thermo-radiative Cells):- How they work:-    These panels, also known as thermoradiative cells, work in reverse of traditional solar panels. Instead of absorbing sunlight, they emit infrared radiation into space, which is then converted into electricity.    Nighttime energy:-     They can generate electricity from the difference in temperature between the panel and the surrounding environment, essentially converting the heat escaping into space back into usable power.  Potential:-  ...

State-wise carbon emissions in India show a concentration in western and southern states, with byd as major emitters, particularly from the manufacturing and energy sectors. The highest total CO2 emissions have been linked to states like Maharashtra, Andhra Pradesh, Uttar Pradesh, Gujarat, Tamil Nadu, and West Bengal, though the specific ranking can vary depending on the data year and the specific pollutants included.
