En dicho pa铆s existe mucha informaci贸n acerca de las emisiones de gases de efecto invernadero (GEI) de diversos sectores productivos; pero la independencia de estos sectores mantiene dispersa la informaci贸n de temas ambientales, energ茅ticos y econ贸micos, haciendo dif铆cil para un inversionista entender con facilidad la situaci贸n. Este trabajo busca presentar la situaci贸n actual del Per煤 como pa铆s anfitri贸n de acciones de mitigaci贸n del cambio clim谩tico financiadas por mercados de carbono, principalmente en los sectores energ茅tico, agr铆cola y forestal que son los que mayores emisiones de GEI tienen registrados. Asimismo se busca mostrar las tendencias de las inversiones en dichas acciones de mitigaci贸n, as铆 como las barreras y oportunidades para los mercados de carbono en Per煤.This thesis has the objective of analyzing and presenting the current situation of Peru as a host country of climate change mitigation actions financed by the carbon markets. Nowadays, the country has more information available than ever, but the independence of the involved sectors keep environmental, energy and investments information separated among them, making it difficult for investors to have a broad idea of the situation. Thus, this paper also aims to join dispersed research efforts in order to make visible the current state, the trends of investments, as well as the barriers and opportunities that the carbon markets face in Peru. As a result of the investigation, it was clarified that Peru鈥檚 industrial sector is small, being transportation sector the principal energy consumer and a potential area for developing carbon projects. Even though it鈥檚 relatively small size, the power sector offers profitable opportunities of investment, highly attractive to be complemented with incomes from carbon sales. Finally, the forest sector, which is Peru鈥檚 main source of GHG emissions due to deforestation, holds the largest potential for developing carbon projects by implementing reforestation and conservation actions. Forest projects are needed, not only due to the business opportunities, but to avoid destroying one of the most valuable resources of the country: its biodiversity
