PRELIMINARY STUDY ON ESTIMATION OF ANCILLARY BENEFITS FROM POTENTIAL CLEAN DEVELOPMENT MECHANISM (CDM) PROJECT IN TRANPORT SECTOR

DOI

Description

Clean Development Mechanism (CDM) is one of the three mechanisms of Kyoto Protocol that aims to stabilize Greenhouse Gases (GHG) in the atmosphere. As transport sector is a main source of GHG and other air pollutants emissions, it is imperative to apply the CDM in transport sector. However, there are some obstacles to adopt the CDM in transport sector. These include technical problems of project boundary certification, baseline setting and monitoring as well the uncertainty of economical viability of projects based on the return of Certified Emission Reduction (CER). Knowing that the GHG mitigation policies for transport sector have generated ancillary benefits other than climate change, this paper intends to take ancillary benefits into account on transport sector CDM project's economical analysis that never be done before. In order to enhance CDM projects in the term of economical viability, two case studies CDM projects in Bangkok, Thailand were conducted.
