The context of climate change are increasingly increasing, the control of greenhouse gas emissions become the top priority of the organizations and enterprises globally. Credits carbon appeared as a solution strategy, not only to help businesses reduce emissions but also meet the international standards, improve sustainability, create opportunities for market entry, global carbon.<\/span><\/p>\n

Understanding <\/span>how to calculate credits carbon<\/b> is a core element to build the production system operate properly prepare, optimize benefits from projects that reduce emissions. This article Lac Viet<\/a> will provide detailed instructions to help business step by step approach, deployment calculate credit only carbon, from which not only meet legal requirements but also create long-term value for the environment and the community.<\/span><\/p>\n

1. How to calculate credits carbon with the basic formula<\/h2>\n

Credits carbon is calculated based on the amount of CO2 or greenhouse gases equivalent to that business has been reduced through specific measures. The basic formula is as follows:<\/span><\/p>\n

\n

Credits carbon = {CO2 emissions initially} \u2013 {CO2 reduction is}<\/span><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

The amount of CO2 emissions initially:<\/b><\/p>\n

    \n
  • This is the total amount of CO2 arising from the operation of the business before applying measures to reduce emissions.<\/span><\/li>\n
  • Emissions is determined through the international standards such as <\/span>GHG Protocol<\/b> or <\/span>ISO 14064<\/b>based on the inventory of greenhouse gases from the operation, production, operation, transportation, energy consumption.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

    The amount of CO2 reduction is: <\/b>Be calculated from measures to reduce emissions, such as:<\/span><\/p>\n

      \n
    • Use of renewable energy:<\/b> Replacing fossil fuels with solar, wind, or biomass.<\/span><\/li>\n
    • Improved production process:<\/b> Use technology to save energy or reduce waste of raw materials.<\/span><\/li>\n
    • Project carbon offset:<\/b> Participate in projects such as REDD+ (protected forest) or VCS (voluntary carbon standard).<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

      How to calculate credits carbon basic<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

      For example:<\/span><\/p>\n

        \n
      • A business using 1,000 liters of diesel (the emission is 2,63 kg CO2\/liter). The amount of CO2 emissions will initially is: 1,000 liters X 2,63 kg CO2\/liter = 2.630 kg CO2(2,63 tons of CO2)<\/span><\/li>\n
      • If the business is switch to using renewable energy, lose 1,000 tons of CO2 credits carbon will get is: Credits carbon = 2.630 tons of CO2 \u2212 1,000 tons CO2 = 1.630 credits carbon<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

        2. The method applied to calculate credits carbon<\/h2>\n

        \"C\u00e1ch<\/p>\n

        2.1 supply Method 1: Use the emission default by the IPCC or international organization provides.<\/h3>\n

        Characteristics: <\/b>Simple, easy to implement, but the accuracy is not high because not reflect the specific conditions of each business.<\/span><\/p>\n

        For example: <\/b>A factory replacement 1,000 liters of diesel oil by the solar:<\/span><\/p>\n

          \n
        • The emission diesel is <\/span>2,63 kg CO2\/liter<\/b>.<\/span><\/li>\n
        • The amount of CO2 reduced: 1,000 liters \u00d7 2,63 kg CO2\/liter = 2,63 tons CO2<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

          2.2 Method level 2: Using emission factors specific to each country or industry.<\/h3>\n

          Characteristics:<\/b><\/p>\n

            \n
          • In accordance with the area or industry conditions emission characteristics.<\/span><\/li>\n
          • Requires the business to have specific data from the supply chain and manufacturing operations.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

            For example: <\/b>Calculate emissions from the production of 1 ton of steel in Vietnam (the coefficient of the average emissions is <\/span>1,85 tons CO2\/ton of steel<\/b>).<\/span><\/p>\n

            2.3 Method level 3: Using the actual data of the enterprise and project specific.<\/h3>\n

            Characteristics:<\/b><\/p>\n

              \n
            • The highest accuracy for reflection conditions, the actual operating of the business.<\/span><\/li>\n
            • Requires more time and resources to collect and analyze data.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

              For example: <\/b>A factory system installation, solar energy, 50% reduction of electricity consumption from the national grid. Number of credits carbon is calculated based on the amount of CO2 reduced to the fact from power consumption.<\/span><\/p>\n
