Impacts
Project Information
This Improved Forest Management (IFM) project focuses on enhancing forest growth on 263.68 ha in Switzerland to sequester an additional 22’057 tons of CO2e over a 30-year period. Based on ISO 14064-2 the project optimizes sustainable forest management practices while maintaining active forestry operations. As a grouped project, it allows for the annual inclusion of new areas that meet specific criteria, promoting long-term forest development and carbon capture within managed forests.

Additionality
Level 1 additionality
Baseline additionality. Compared to the baseline scenario the project needs to mitigate climate change. That is the project must implement actions that are additional to what would occur compared to the baseline.
Level 2a additionality
Statutory additionality. The project must implement actions that are beyond requirements stipulated in local legislation or regulations. Projects are statutory additional if their implementation and/or operation is not required by any law, statute, or other regulatory framework, agreements, settlements, or other legally binding mandates requiring implementation and operation or requiring implementation of similar measures that would result in the same mitigations in the host country.
Level 3 additionality
Technology, institutional, common practice additionality. The project must implement actions that are subject to barriers of implementation or accelerate deployment of technology or activities and carbon market incentives are essential in overcoming these barriers.
Level 4a additionality
Financial additionality I. A project is financially additional if it results in higher costs or relatively lower profitability than would have otherwise occurred in the baseline scenario.
Level 5 additionality
Policy additionality. Implementation of actions may lie out of the scope of the host country's Nationally Determined Contributions under the Paris Agreement and, therefore, not eligible for international transfer mechanism. When project implementation goes beyond its host country’s climate objectives and lies outside of the scope of its climate action strategy towards its NDCs, it is considered to be policy additional.
