Thailand Voluntary Emission Reduction Program (T-VER) Thailand Greenhouse Gas Management Organization (Public Organization)1) Objective of T-VER To encourage domestic GHG emission reduction along with co-benefit projects through certifying carbon credits To promote Voluntary Carbon Market in the Country To raise consciousness /awareness of climate change for public and private sector to involve in GHG mitigation To prepare all stakeholders for the new agreement for GHG emission reduction in the near future Credits are mainly used for CSR and voluntary carbon offsetting of companies 2 Basic principle in developing T-VER Transparency : clearly explained methods and assumptions Relevance : The project must comply with the eligibility criteria for the type of project concerned, with a suitable methodology selected. Accuracy; measure of exactness-neither over or under estimated Consistency; internally consistent over time series Comparability; inventories are comparable across Parties/Member States Completeness; covers all relevant categories of sources and sinks, and gases. 3 Securing of Reliability of Offsetting Credits (T-VER) The scheme is Harmonized with International Standards Monitoring/ calculation rules based on ISO 14064-2, CDM Meth. Validation/verification guidelines based on ISO 14064-3 Validation and Verification Body (VVB) based on ISO14065/DOE (after 2016 VVB must be acquired accreditation on ISO 14065) 4 Characteristics of T-VER GHG reduction – Project based – Baseline-and-credit Size of projects – No limitation – Can be bundled Carbon Credits – TVERs (Thailand Verified Emission Reductions) Gas coverage – CO2, CH4, N2O 5 Institutional Framework for T-VER Board of Director of TGO Subcommittee of Methodology Subcommittee of GHG Emission Reduction ProjectMeth.

At the initial stage, pay back period is used for proving additionality. 9 Co-benefit o PP should prepare the Co-benefits evaluation report o Co-benefit evaluation report contains 3 parts Part 1 : Project Description Part 2 : Existing environment Part 3 : Co-benefits evaluation o Co-benefits must be assessed using a “Checklist system” o The proposed project activity that will be evaluated as “co-benefit project” - must meet all laws and regulation related to pollution control and environmental regulation - have co-benefits in terms of environment social and economic 11 Co-benefits Checklist Environment 1. Support national policy 2. Reduce air pollution 3. Reduce water pollution 4. Reduce noise pollution 5. Waste Management 6. Hazardous waste management 7. Reduce contamination of soil 8. Reduce contamination of under ground water 9. Reduce odor 10. Increase water utilization efficiency 11. Increase green area Social 1. Support public participation 2. Support social, cultural, environment and health development of community 3. Capacity Building for personnel Economic 1. Support local economic (employment /additional stakeholder income) 2. Reduce costs and expenses of project/ Increase revenue from by-product of project 3. Increase renewable energy utilization and energy efficiency 4. Increase local content 12 Prevention of Double Use of Credits (double counting) Prohibition of double certification resulting from similar systems Prevention of double counting in transferring an environment- conservation-related value added of greenhouse gas emission reductions/removals to a third party Prevention of double counting in providing a voluntary reporting/announcement Prevention of double counting in public report/announcement systems 13 Checking process: double counting -- registration 14 Checking process: double counting -- issuance 15 Website used for checking double counting 16 Reject/ Withdrawal of T-VER Project TGO can cancel or withdraw the registration of the T-VER Project in accordance with Rule of cancellation of the registration If project does not comply with rules and regulation Not cooperate in No Activity implementation after 2 years of registration 17 Type of Project 1.
