Install Solar Panels How Much CO₂ Can You Reduce?

The Grid Emission Factor (GEF) is the rate of CO₂ emitted per unit of electricity produced by the national grid. The value 0.4999 tCO₂/MWh is the Combined Margin published by EGAT and TGO (Thailand Greenhouse Gas Management Organization) in 2023, used for T-VER carbon credit calculations.

Yes! Businesses can register their solar projects under TGO's T-VER program to earn certified carbon credits. Current trading prices are approximately 100-200 THB/tonne CO₂, depending on the standard and buyer. CapSolar can help with the registration process.

Solar panels directly reduce Scope 2 greenhouse gas emissions (purchased electricity), which is a key metric in all ESG reporting standards including GRI, TCFD, CDP, and SET Sustainability Reports. Additionally, solar generation can qualify for Renewable Energy Certificates (RECs).

You can use these in Sustainability Reports, Carbon Footprint Assessments, ESG Disclosures, SET Sustainability Awards, T-VER registration, Carbon Neutral Target Assessment, and Science-Based Targets (SBT). For maximum accuracy, use actual meter readings after installation.
