Green Building Movement in India
Climate Change Mitigation:
Commitments and Actions
Adaptation
Technology transfer and Financing

The Prime Minister of India has already committed that per
capita emission of India will not exceed that of developed
countries on any given day in future. CII is working with its
members to voluntarily take leadership in climate-friendly
technologies and operations, so as to contribute to India's
low-carbon development.
India can undertake mitigation commitments that are
measurable, reportable and verifiable with support on
technology and financial front from the developed
countries. Mitigation actions enabled through
international finance and technology would certainly be
open to international scrutiny under multilateral and not
bilateral framework. India's national communication as
per recommendations of IGPCC (Inter-governmental panel
on Climate Change) could provide the context to the
international community in this regard.
Business has an important role to play in financing and
implementing adaptation measures in developing
countries. This could be done by combining their technical
expertise, managerial efficiency, entrepreneurial spirit and
financial capability with social commitment of
governments in undertaking adaptation measures.
Many funding mechanisms, including carbon markets,
already exist, and they could be improved and leveraged if
governments increased their transparency, efficiency, and
functionality and made their funding more predictable.
Any new agreement should include reform of the Joint
Implementation and Clean Development Mechanism
(CDM) that provide the opportunities in some countries to
finance clean technologies and implement climate
change measures in emerging and developing economies.
A post-2012 agreement must further stimulate investment
and provide opportunities for companies to invest in the
research, development, and commercial adoption of
existing and future technologies. All technology options
should be considered. National and international climate
policies should support wider commercial use of existing
technologies to increase energy supplies and improve
demand and supply efficiency. Developed countries
should take the lead and boost technology cooperation
with developing countries. Technological co-operation,
public-private partnerships, innovative financing, and
capacity building are all needed to facilitate technology
transfer and commerce and promote energy efficiency in
emerging and developing economies.
Global research and development in low-carbon
technologies should be initiated in collaborative mode
involving public and private sector both from developed
and developing countries. Businesses from developing
countries can commit to accelerate deployment of clean
energy technologies, build capacity to access and
internalise cutting-edge technologies and contribute to the
international R&D initiatives. Development of new
technologies in consortia mode should also be
accompanied by appropriate sharing of IPRs.

About CII
The Confederation of Indian Industry (CII) works to create and
sustain an environment conducive to the growth of industry in
India, partnering industry and government alike through
advisory and consultative processes

Government bodies, NGOs and academicians, both nationally
as well as internationally, for devising and implementing
policies & strategies to combat climate change. CII strives to
forge linkages between industry and government so that they
can work as partners in tackling the challenge of climate
change. CII, through its Energy Policy wing and through
specialised Centres of Excellence—CII-Sohrabji Godrej Green
Business Centre (GBC) and CII-ITC Centre of Excellence for
