CDM implementation in Korea
Gyungae HaCenter for Climate Change Mitigation
ProjectsKorea Energy Management Corporation
October 19-21 2005, AIT, Thailand
ContentsCurrent statusDNA in KoreaApproval Criteria Approved projectsLessons learned
Current status Republic of Korea signed the convention
in December 1993 and the Kyoto protocol in November 2002
The government approves two CDM projects by October 2005 HFC decomposition project in Ulsan (MOCIE,
MOE) & N2O emission reduction in Onsan (MOCIE, MOE)
Currently, the government is reviewing a wind power project
Another two projects(wind power & tidal power) are in the validation stage
Structure of DNAInter-Ministerial Committee on UNFCCC

To apply for the approval of a CDM Project, a project developer shall submit the following documents to the Industrial Policy Coordination and Energy Division in the Office of Government Policy Coordination
Application form CDM PDD Approval letter from Annex I or Validation report Document which certifies Annex I investment(if
applicable) Approval letter from the Executive Board on baseline and
monitoring methodologies (if applicable) Environmental Impact Assessment report (if applicable)
Required Documents for the approval
Procedure for CDM approval in Korea
Project participa
nts
CDM Review Committee
Responsible Ministry or Ministries
Submit application documents for approval letter
Circulate the application documents within the committee and appoint a ministry or ministries for reviewing q proposed CDM project through the consultation of related ministries
Responsible ministry or ministries submit(s) the review document to the committee and ask(s) the office of government policy coordination to held a meeting of the committee for final decision
Issues an approval letter based on the result of the final meeting of the committee
Approval criteria A CDM project shall contribute to national
sustainable development; Emission reductions attributable to a CDM
project shall be additional to any that would occur in the absence of the proposed project;
A CDM project shall assess its impact on environment, transportation and disasters if applicable;
Environmentally sound technologies and know-how shall be transferred;
A CDM project shall comply with relevant policies and regulatory regimes.
Priority areas in a revised procedures
Energy Efficiency improvement Renewable energy
Renewable energy potential in Korea
Methane recovery and utilization in landfills
Source Potential Remarks
PV 38 TWh-including 10% of available installation area
Wind 93 TWh - 20% of technical potential
Small Hydro 3.9 TWh -
Geothermal n.a. -
Biomass2.3
mil.TOE/year- mainly for thermal usage
Approved projects
HFC decomposition project in Ulsan The project is in the Ulsan plant which
produces HCFC 22 and HFC 23 as an inevitable by-product of the HCFC 22. This project installs HFC 23 collection and decomposition process equipment. The project will reduce 1.4million CO2 ton per year Main ministries : MOCIE & MOE Supporting bodies: KEMCO for MOCIE & EMC for
MOE The project has been approved by the
committee as the first CDM project in Korea.
N2O emission reduction in Onsan The project is in Rhodia plant at Onsan
which produce adipic acid(C6H10O4), main constituent of nylon. The project will install a facility to convert the nitrous oxide from adipic acid unit into nitrogen based on the process of thermal decomposition. The project will reduce 9.15million CO2 ton per year Main ministries : MOCIE & MOE Supporting bodies: KEMCO for MOCIE & EMC for
MOE KEMCO held a expert meeting for reviewing the
project.
Lessons learned Difficulties in applying the concept of its
contribution to the SD into the reviewing process Different perspective of the concept of SD
according to a ministry
Problems with monitoring to ensure that approved CDM projects continue to meet established sustainable development criteria and technology transfer issues
Lessons learned Need for measures to promote energy efficiency
improvement projects and new & renewable energy projects
Note) 1000won = 1US$
Building a network of CDM DNAs for sharing their experience, criteria and procedure (ex. in UNFCCC website)
