Abstract
As part of the carbon regulation of the Russian Federation, it is important not only to reduce greenhouse gas emissions in such sectors of the economy as energy, industrial production, agriculture, etc., but also to actively develop climate projects with carbon-absorbing capacity and using the sequestration potential of territories and local ecosystems. The territory of the Arctic zone of the Russian Federation occupies more than 67 % of the entire territory of the Russian Federation. Methodological approaches to the assessment of climate projects and their requirements from the outside, including the international community, are investigated. Two options for the implementation of a botanical and climatic project on the slopes of the roadway in the Arctic zone of the Russian Federation are considered. The article makes calculations of investment and current costs for the implementation of a botanical and climatic project within the Arctic zone of the Russian Federation. The cost of a carbon unit in various forest-climatic projects is analyzed. Data on the carbon-absorbing capacity of perennial grass crops and the assessment of the volume of investments made it possible to estimate the cost of a carbon unit under various scenarios for the implementation of a botanical and climatic project.
Supporting agencies: The research was carried out within the framework of the scientific project of the Russian National Science Foundation No. 22-18-00424 “Formation of a portfolio of climate projects to achieve carbon neutrality in the region”.
