津巴布韋推出區塊鏈註冊表以恢復碳市場信託

這項行動是在津巴布韋在2023年對碳信貸的快速政策轉變帶來的不確定性之後。

Zimbabwe has unveiled a new blockchain system to integrate and bring transparency to its carbon credit market.

津巴布韋揭開了一種新的區塊鏈系統，以將其透明度整合到其碳信貸市場。

According to Bloomberg, the Southeast African nation is aiming to create a trusted nationwide platform where approved developers can conduct safe and transparent carbon credit exchanges.

根據彭博社的說法，東南非洲國家的目標是建立一個受信任的全國平台，在該平台上，經過批准的開發商可以進行安全透明的碳信用交易所。

This action follows the uncertainties brought on by Zimbabwe’s quick policy shifts regarding carbon credits in 2023. At that time, the government canceled numerous active initiatives, insisted on a 50% share of revenue, and requested that all developers re-register.

這項行動是在津巴布韋在2023年對碳信貸的快速政策轉變帶來的不確定性之後。當時，政府取消了許多積極的計劃，堅持使用50％的收入，並要求所有開發商重新註冊。

Therefore, international developers, with the well-known Kariba REDD+ Project among them, experienced considerable challenges completing their work.

因此，國際開發商包括著名的Kariba Redd+項目，他們面臨著巨大的挑戰。

As a result, Zimbabwe faced diminished trust from large numbers of investors and project partners. The unanticipated changes cast doubt on the country’s reliability and increased worries about equal and dependable business practices. For this reason, the government has begun initiatives to restore its image and encourage investment by focusing on strengthening the transparent management of carbon credit processes.

結果，津巴布韋面臨的眾多投資者和項目合作夥伴的信任降低了。意外的變化使該國的可靠性以及對平等和可靠的商業實踐的擔憂增加了懷疑。因此，政府已開始通過專注於加強碳信用流程的透明管理來恢復其形象並鼓勵投資的倡議。

In order to bolster these goals, Zimbabwe created the Carbon Market Management Authority (ZCMA) last week. The new entity will manage the approval of carbon offset projects and make certain they comply with all regulations. Before carrying out any carbon credit projects, developers must register their compliance applications through zicma.org.zw.

為了增強這些目標，津巴布韋上週創建了碳市場管理局（ZCMA）。新實體將管理碳偏移項目的批准，並確保它們符合所有法規。在進行任何碳信用項目之前，開發人員必須通過zicma.org.zw註冊其合規申請。

Last year, RippleNami, a California-based data company, reported that Zimbabwe is a key player in the carbon market in Africa. Being the third-largest contributor on the continent, Zimbabwe supplies 12.5% of Africa’s total carbon credits, according to the company’s analysis. This finding suggests that Zimbabwe could take a leadership position in environmental and carbon offset efforts, provided it keeps investor confidence high and maximizes the new carbon registry’s potential.

去年，總部位於加利福尼亞的數據公司Ripplenami報告說，津巴布韋是非洲碳市場的關鍵參與者。根據該公司的分析，津巴布韋是整個非洲大陸的第三大貢獻者，佔非洲總碳信用額的12.5％。這一發現表明，津巴布韋可以在環境和碳抵消量的工作中發揮領導地位，只要它可以使投資者保持較高的信心並最大程度地發揮新的碳註冊中心的潛力。

However, with the government’s abrupt policy changes in 2023, several foreign developers encountered difficulties completing their projects. Among them is the Kariba REDD+ Project, a large-scale initiative that has been actively pursued by international partners since 2010.

但是，隨著2023年政府的突然政策變化，一些外國開發商遇到了完成項目的困難。其中包括Kariba Redd+項目，這是一項自2010年以來國際合作夥伴積極追求的大規模倡議。

Despite the new administration's good intentions, quickly switching to a 50% revenue share and demanding re-registration from all developers in the middle of projects had a significant impact. As a result, large-scale investors and project partners, who are crucial for launching new climate projects, have become hesitant to continue their involvement.

儘管新政府的良好意圖，但在項目中間，所有開發商都迅速轉向了50％的收入份額，並要求重新註冊。結果，對於啟動新的氣候項目至關重要的大型投資者和項目合作夥伴已經猶豫要繼續參與。

This step is part of broader efforts by African countries to use blockchain technology for climate finance and carbon trading.

此步驟是非洲國家使用區塊鏈技術進行氣候融資和碳交易的更廣泛努力的一部分。
