Sustainable Development Criteria for CDM Projects in Thailand

There are 4 major groups in the Sustainable Development (SD) Criteria for CDM project evaluation: Natural Resources and Environment; Social; Technology; and Economics. The Scoring method is used for evaluation in each indicator /criterion. Minus (-1, -2, -3) indicates negative impact to the area. Zero (0) indicates no impact to the area, or equivalent to the baseline scenario (without a CDM project). Plus (+1, +2, +3) indicates positive impact, or shows contribution to the surrounding area of the project. There are 24 indicators in 4 groups of SD Criteria. For the project to be considered as a CDM project and receive a Letter of Approval from Thailand, the project must have a positive score in each group of criteria and the total score must be positive (more than zero). Sustainable development criteria for CDM projects under Thailand Greenhouse Gas Management Organization (Public Organization) is summarized as shown in the Table. The SD criteria is under improvement toward a Gold Standard.
