2 Contents Current Status Preparation for CDM implementation Capacity Development for CDM Work Plan to carry out the CD4CDM Project Conclusion

3 Current Status ADVANTAGES Vietnam signed Kyoto Protocol (PK) on 03 December 1998 and ratified it on 25 September 2002. Article 12 of KP to UNFCCC created CDM to assist developing countries like Viet Nam in achieving sustainable development and in contributing to the ultimate objective of UNFCCC. Implementation of CDM by means of developing and carrying out CDM projects will play an important role in sustainable socio-economic development in Viet Nam

4 Current Status  Ministry of Natural Resources and Environment (MONRE) is assigned by the Government as a National Authority for implementing UNFCCC and KP as well as a CDM National Focal Point Agency.  Under UNEP Project: “Capacity Development for CDM”, National Office for Climate Change & Ozone Protection (NOCCOP) – Country Executing Agency of the project - belongs to MONRE.  Final Work Plan to carry out the UNEP project has been completed since March 2003. The plan is being submitted to the Government for approval.

5 Current Status Viet Nam carried out a National Strategy Study on CDM project (NSS) supported by the Government of Australia through World Bank (WB). National Steering Committee and Study Team of NSS have been established. Country GHG emission reduction potential and costs are assessed. CDM potential projects are identified and developed. Outcomes of NSS will be fruitful for implementation the UNEP Project in Viet Nam.

6 Current Status DISADVANTAGES Policy makers and business circle: Low awareness about CDM. Lack of manpower. Development strategies, policies, plans of sectors are available but the CDM was not taken into consideration Legal framework for CDM activities need improving. National Steering Committee established under NSS project need reorganizing and strengthening to meet CDM requirements.

7 Preparation for CDM implementation Evaluate of Vietnam’s supply potential  Based on National GHG Emission Projection in the period of 2000-2020.  Bottom-up approach: Development and assessment of GHG mitigation options focusing on energy and land use change & forestry sectors. Research CDM market opportunities for Vietnam  Building up the MACs curves of Vietnam based on results of GHG abatement potential  Using data of GHG abatement potential for evaluation  The GHG market size of Vietnam is rather small. It is accounted for 0.75% of Non-Annex I export revenue.

8 How to realize CDM Opportunity ? Three issues need considering :  Criteria for CDM projects:  Sustainability  Additionality  Feasibility  Approval process (Viet Nam CDM project cycle).  Domestic prerequisites.
