7. Acronyms
UNFCCC United Nation Framework Convention
on Climate Change
GHG Greenhouse Gas
MtCO2e Metric Tonne Carbon Dioxide
Equivalent
AAU Assigned Amount Units, allocated
only to Annex I
ERU Emission Reduction Unit
CER Certified Emission Reduction

11. Carbon Credit
A generic term to assign a value to a reduction or
offset of greenhouse gas emissions.. usually
equivalent to one tonne of carbon dioxide
equivalent (CO2-e).
Definition from The Environment Protection
Authority of Victoria
Carbon Credit can be from
– Assigned Amount Units (AAU) trading
– Emission Reduction Unit (ERU)
– Certified Emission Reduction (CER)

14. Carbon Credit Demand & Supply

15. World Demands for Carbon Credit

16. Carbon Credit Demand Increase
Implementation of
policies that require
GHG reduction
Consumer demand
for GHG neutral
products
(questioning?)
Climate change, too
hot or too cold
Energy price
decrease

17. Carbon Credit Demand Decrease
Policies that
improve energy use
efficiency
Energy price
increase
Lower price of
alternative energies
Technologies that
reduce the fuel
requirement

18. Carbon Credit Supply Increase
Lower cost
technologies to
create carbon credit
Implement GHG
reduction policies
Incentive to adopt
tillage & soil
management system
(ie. planting forest)

19. Carbon Credit Supply Decrease
Policies limiting the
types of emission
reduction
techniques for
generating credits

20. Factors Affecting Demand & Supply

21. Thailand and Carbon Credit

22. Carbon Credit in Thailand
 Non Annex I country
 Thailand Greenhouse Gas Management
Organization(TGO)

23. CDM projects in Thailand
 Letter of Approval (LoA) for 160 projects
 The number of registered project is 66
projects.
 10 CDM projects in Thailand that received
CERs
 The amount of CERs issued is now 1.045

26. Conclusion

27. An Achievement saving Tomorrow, TODAY!!
 Renewal of Kyoto Protocol until 2017
 Reduced 25-40 percent of carbon emission
below 1990 levels by 2020
 Second commitment begins January 2013
