A project of Greenhouse Gas emission reduction management system and impact assessment
Absrtact |
This project includes four main work items; the implementation results achieved for each work item are summarized below.
Work item 1: improvement of voluntary reduction mechanism
The outcomes of this work item are listed as below. (1) Review the current status of the international voluntary reduction mechanism, including CDM, VCS, JI, and GS. Based on the information provided in the comments, the suggested amendments to Taiwan's voluntary reduction mechanism are proposed. (2) Compare the review process of domestic and international reduction projects and make recommendations on the current review process in Taiwan. (3) Propose the draft of the "Regulation of Reward for Greenhouse Gas Emission Sources to Meet the Performance Standards" and assist in amending the "Regulations of Management for Greenhouse Gas Offset Projects". (4) With reference to the international credit reduction code format, the "Guidelines to the Credit Format Reduction" is proposed and announced.
Work item 2: supporting work of reduction project review
The implementation results achieved for this item includes the followings. (1) project review: a total of 7 greenhouse gas reduction outcomes approval review meetings, 68 offset projects / reduction methodology review, and 52 review meetings of technical experts are completed. The results of the project review and expert meeting are compiled and submitted to the Taiwan EPA for record every month. (2) analysis of international case study: Translate 5 of reduction methodologies related to residential and transportation sector, and 5 case study analysis of CDM projects. (3) decision supporting tools building for project review: Update the WACC and offset project benchmark values of various domestic industries in Taiwan. (4) preliminary investigation of frontier research topic: Review the international literature and technical reports to explore possible further application of blockchains on carbon management.
Work item 3: GHGs management of development projects
The main results of this work item include three as follows. (1) new institutional mechanism building: Assist in the drafting of the "Principle of GHGs Emission Offset for Development Project" (draft) to guide the project developers to implement the GHGs reduction work, and to contribute funds or technologies to assist small emission sources outside the scope of the development project to reduce emission. (2) project review: A total of 105 cases were reviewed and analyzed, 4
