TUV SUD, an international leading technical service organization catering to the industry, mobility and certification segment, has decided to manage the validation and verification of clean development mechanism (CDM) projects from India. In its 69th meeting, the executive board of the UNFCCC approved the relocation of TUV SUD from Munich to Pune. The DOE (designated operational entity) located at TUV SUD South Asia has already started operations.
“The relocation of the designated operational entity to India marks an important step which we are taking to cater to the significance of the newly industrialized countries and the Asia Pacific region for the clean development mechanism,” said Bratin Roy, assistant vice president of TUV SUD South Asia in Pune. The DOE is responsible for all CDM projects worldwide that are validated and verified by TUV SUD, which has been engaged in the area of climate change projects for over ten years and was amongst the first companies to be accredited as DOE for the CDM and as accredited independent entity for joint implementation projects on behalf of the UNFCCC.
