Article 6 Registry Infrastructure Development Begins

UNFCCC and UNDP awarded a multi-year contract to develop the Article 6 Paris Agreement digital registry infrastructure, marking the start of work on systems to record, track, and verify international transfers of mitigation outcomes (ITMOs) between countries. Core components include a Minimum Viable Product for pilot testing, the Article 6.2 International Registry for ITMOs, the Paris Agreement Crediting Mechanism Registry for A6.4 Emission Reductions, and an Interoperability Hub for secure data exchange across national/international systems. Deployed in UNFCCC environments, the systems aim to ensure transparency, prevent double counting, and build confidence in cross-border carbon market cooperation per CMA mandates.
