1. Consultation for Project History, Setting the Base Year and Scope of Evaluation

The first step involves consulting relevant stakeholders to gather information about the project’s background, objectives, and expected outcomes. This includes defining the base year for assessment, which serves as a reference point for measuring greenhouse gas (GHG) reductions over time. The scope of evaluation must be clearly outlined, covering organizational boundaries, operational limits, and the extent of emissions considered (e.g., direct and indirect emissions). This step ensures that the assessment framework aligns with internationally recognized methodologies and local regulations.

2.Collect and analyze data for evaluating the GHG emissions

Data collection is a crucial phase in accurately assessing the product’s carbon footprint. This step includes: Defining Organizational and Operational Boundaries: Establishing which activities and entities will be included in the assessment, based on industry standards and best practices. Determining the Baseline Scenario: Setting up a baseline in compliance with Thailand Greenhouse Gas Management Organization (TGO) guidelines to compare future emissions reductions. Preparing Documentation for Project Registration: Gathering relevant reports, calculations, and supporting materials necessary for formal evaluation.

3.Prepare documents for registration according to the guidelines of the Thailand Greenhouse Gas Management Organization (TGO)

All collected data and analysis results must be compiled into a comprehensive report following TGO’s specified format. This documentation includes emission calculation methodologies, data sources, and verification details to ensure transparency and consistency. Proper documentation is essential for the successful registration of the project and future monitoring.

4.Support in finding solutions to reduce GHG emissions of the product in the following year

After the assessment, it is important to identify opportunities for reducing GHG emissions. This involves analyzing energy consumption, raw material use, production processes, and logistics to propose effective reduction strategies. Potential solutions may include improving energy efficiency, switching to low-carbon materials, implementing waste reduction techniques, and optimizing transportation. These strategies contribute to continuous improvement and long-term sustainability.

5.Assist in coordinating with external evaluators and TGO

External verification is often required to ensure the credibility and accuracy of the emissions assessment. This step involves coordinating with third-party evaluators and TGO representatives to facilitate document review, site inspections, and data validation. Clear communication and prompt responses to inquiries help streamline the verification process and minimize delays.

6.Support the registration of the project on TGO's website

Once all necessary evaluations are completed, the final step is to officially register the project with TGO. This process includes: Review and Approval by TGO: The organization examines the submitted documents and verifies the emissions calculation results. Announcement and Certification Issuance: If the project meets all requirements, TGO will officially announce the results and issue a certificate recognizing the GHG assessment and reduction efforts.
