A Carbon Strategy for Copper

There is a strong relationship between the use of copper, as the best electrical conductor, and the reduction of carbon emissions from the electricity system. Therefore, CDM offers a great opportunity for the copper sector. As part of its carbon strategy, International Copper Association aims to develop methodologies and facilitate projects for generating CERs for sustainable electricity generation or reducing energy intensity of use through the use of copper in motor systems, power distribution, building energy management and industrial processes. These approaches can be used throughout the electricity system, but they are also being applied inside the copper sector by the Chilean mining industry.
