MaineHousing Develops Model Carbon Trading Program

By Amy Campbell

WESTBROOK, ME ? Cathy Lee, of Lee International, is the lead carbon markets advisor to the Maine State Housing Authority (MaineHousing) in a model program supported by a grant from the Ford Foundation. MaineHousing is believed to be the first state housing finance agency in the country to develop a model program to quantify, verify, certify and sell carbon emission reductions created by energy efficiency improvements in low-income housing. See more information on the program here.

Lee International helps organizations benefit strategically and financially from carbon emissions trading schemes. It focuses on Clean Development Mechanism (CDM) projects in developing countries, emission reduction projects for the voluntary markets in the USA and Europe, and the new mandatory regional trading programs in the USA (such as the Regional Greenhouse Gas Initiative, or RGGI).
