In a landmark move for continental climate action, the Government of the Republic of Malawi announced the World's First AI project involving the Paris Agreement implementation. The Green Economy Partnership GEP will deploy the World's first AI-powered system that embeds all the compliance requirements under the Paris Agreement, including National Emission Register, Carbon registry, Corresponding Adjustments and Reporting. This strategic partnership, formalized at a signing ceremony in Lilongwe, positions Malawi as a global frontrunner in leveraging cutting-edge technology for climate finance transparency and carbon governance.
The agreement, spearheaded by Malawi's Ministry of Natural Resources and Climate Change, culminates over two years of dedicated planning and collaboration. The resulting system will redefine how the nation manages emissions data, registers carbon projects, and attracts environmental investment under the framework of the Paris Agreement. The work, undertaken by numerous AI Agents will provide Malawi with the transparency, accuracy and opportunities that its data sets withhold.
This pioneering initiative will operationalize the National Inventory and a National Carbon Registry System built on a secure blockchain architecture. The uniqueness of the system is how it covers all the elements of compliance, including ISO, ESG and the Paris Agreement alike, and not only selected components such as Carbon Trading or National Carbon Registry alone. The technology can be integrated with existing systems and ensures unparalleled data integrity, traceability, and transparency, automating complex processes vital for international climate compliance. This includes the generation of Biennial Transparency Reports BTRs, the management of Internationally Transferable Mitigation Outcomes ITMOs, and the execution of Corresponding Adjustments under Article 6 of the Paris Agreement, to name a few.
